The Research team of Professor Do Nam Lee (Ingenium College) developed antibacterial agents using nanoflowers, and  the research results were selected as the cover paper for 'ACS Applied Nano Materials,' published by the American Chemical Society (ACS) in December 2022 (ACS Appl. Nano Mater. 2023, 6, 846-855), and they have published 16 SCI-level papers on antibacteriall and anticancer research in the past three years.

The research was supported by the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) for Mid-Career Researchers (NRF-2021R1A2C1004285, 2019R1A2C2086770), the Nano Material Technology Development Program through the NRF funded by the Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning (2009-0082580), and the Center for Women in Science, Engineering, and Technology (WISET) grant funded by the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) under the program for returners into R&D.
