[Policy Trends]

Minister of the Interior and Safety Kim Boo Kyum emphasizes the importance of digital transformation by actively applying new technologies to the public sector at the opening ceremony of the OECD E-Leaders 2018 Seoul Meeting at the Westin Chosun Hotel, Seoul, on Oct. 30.

[Research Results]

The new Chollian-2A geostationary weather satellite, to be launched from the Guiana Space Center at Kourou in French Guiana on Dec. 4 (local time), is being prepared for relocation by a researcher at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) in Daejeon on Oct. 16. (Ministry of Science and ICT)

 A Molecular Sensor for In-Situ Analysis of Complex Biological Fluids

A KAIST research group presented a molecular sensor with a microbead format for the rapid in-situ detection of harmful molecules in biological fluids or foods in a collaboration with a Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) research group. As the sensor is designed to selectively concentrate charged small molecules and amplify the Raman signal, no time-consuming pretreatment of samples is required.

Korean researchers reported a high-performance and transparent nanoforce touch sensor by developing a thin, flexible, and transparent hierarchical nanocomposite (HNC) film. The research team says their sensor simultaneously features all the necessary characters for industrial-grade application: high sensitivity, transparency, bending insensitivity, and manufacturability.
