The Bioinspired Materials Lab at Kyungpook National University focuses on analyzing the biochemical expression mechanisms and properties of natural materials found in nature (e.g., mussel byssus). Based on these analyses, the lab designs and synthesizes advanced biomaterials. The current research focuses on functional bioadhesive materials, drug delivery systems for tissue regeneration, and bio-printing materials. In addition to fundamental research, the lab also places significant effort on translational research. This includes work on scaffolds and artificial membranes for bone regeneration, medical pressure-sensitive adhesives, and functional contact lenses for glucose monitoring. The long-term goal is to provide data-driven explanations of how various molecular functionalities of biomaterials impact biological systems. Recently, the lab developed a platform to identify genetic expression differences based on functional groups within biomaterials and is concentrating on building a library for this purpose. The aim is to provide material design guidelines to biomaterials researchers and contribute to the diversification and practical application of biomaterials over the next decade. The ultimate goal is to use the developed biomaterials to help save lives.
