fund
Epapyrus, a solution company for e-documents that was created by a KAIST graduate, donated USD 106,000 worth of paperless software to KAIST on October 20, 2015.
President Steve Kang of KAIST presented a plaque of appreciation to President Jung-Hee Kim of Epapyrus to recognize his donation.
To the Class of 2003 in computer science, President Kim said,
“KAIST has always been supportive of me. Even when I neglected my study to focus on the start-up of my company during college, the university encouraged me to pursue my dream. I was thrilled when I learned that KAIST was looking for an e-paper solution package because I knew I could return what I had received to my alma mater.”
President Kang replied,
“President Kim is indeed one of our proud alumni. He created a company based on an innovative idea, and we are pleased to see his company grow steadily. Certainly, we would not have accomplished all the great things without the generous support of our strong alumni.”

research KAIST Develops a Multifunctional Structural Battery Capable of Energy Storage and Load Support
Structural batteries are used in industries such as eco-friendly, energy-based automobiles, mobility, and aerospace, and they must simultaneously meet the requirements of high energy density for energy storage and high load-bearing capacity. Conventional structural battery technology has struggled to enhance both functions concurrently. However, KAIST researchers have succeeded in developing foundational technology to address this issue. < Photo 1. (From left) Professor Seong Su Kim, PhD

research KAIST Unveils New Possibilities for Treating Intractable Brain Tumors
< Photo 1. (From left) Professor Heung Kyu Lee, KAIST Department of Biological Sciences, and Dr. Keun Bon Ku > Immunotherapy, which enhances the immune system's T cell response to eliminate cancer cells, has emerged as a key approach in cancer treatment. However, in the case of glioblastoma, an aggressive and treatment-resistant brain tumor, numerous clinical trials have failed to confirm their efficacy. Korean researchers have recently analyzed the mechanisms that cause T cell exhaus
