The wireless brain control system technology developed by Professor Jung Jae-woong’s laboratory at KAIST has been finally selected for the ‘2023 National Research and Development TOP 100’ by the Ministry of Science and ICT.<\/span><\/p>\n

The National Research and Development TOP 100 is a policy that selects outstanding national research and development achievements across various ministries and agencies, marking its 18th year this year.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the current year, a total of 854 candidate achievements recommended by each ministry underwent evaluation by a selection evaluation committee consisting of 100 experts from industry, academia, and research institutions. With this evaluation, the final 100 outstanding achievements are selected after public verification.<\/span><\/p>\n

Particularly noteworthy is that Professor Jung Jae-woong’s research outcome was also chosen as one of the ‘Top 10 Achievements in Social Problem Solving’ through nationwide online\u00a0voting.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n
The selected research involves the ‘Development of a Wireless Brain Control System Based on the Internet of Things for Brain Research Automation and Remote Treatment of Brain Diseases.’ <\/span><\/div>\n
It was carried out with the support of the Mid-Career Researcher Support Project by the Ministry of Science and ICT.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n

As the world enters the era of aging, the number of patients suffering from brain diseases such as Parkinson’s is rapidly increasing. <\/span><\/p>\n

However, the pace of progress in brain research to elucidate brain function and cure brain diseases has not kept up with the increasing rate of patients.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In response, Professor Jung Jae-woong’s research team combined wireless neural implant technology with IoT technology. <\/span><\/p>\n

They successfully developed the world’s first IoT-based high-efficiency brain control system that can remotely select and control dozens to hundreds of brains with transplanted wireless neural implants simultaneously, anywhere in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This technology not only supports fully automated, low-cost, high-efficiency brain research but also demonstrates the possibility of remote implementation for the efficient treatment of brain diseases such as Parkinson’s, dementia, and epilepsy. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thus, it presents a new vision for brain research and the brain disease treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ph.D candidate Kim Chung-yeon, a KAIST undergraduate alumni, participated as co-first author in the introduced paper. It was published in the most prestigious international journal ‘Nature Biomedical Engineering’ on June 20, 2022 (Paper Title: Scalable and modular wireless-network infrastructure for large-scale behavioural neuroscience).<\/span><\/p>\n
