The Global Science Research Center for Systems Chemistry (GCSC) brought together some of the brightest minds in nanomaterials science on October 22, 2025, for a special symposium that was anything but ordinary. Held during the 2025 Korean Chemical Society (KCS) Fall Meeting, the event's star attraction was none other than Professor Moungi G. Bawendi from MIT—fresh off his 2023 Nobel Prize win in Chemistry. His groundbreaking work on quantum dots has revolutionized the field, and his presentation on "Colloidal Quantum Dots as Single Photon Quantum Emitters" gave attendees a front-row seat to cutting-edge science. But Bawendi wasn't the only one delivering insights worth paying attention to. The symposium, organized by Professors Jaeyoung Sung, Sung Jee Kim, and Hae Sung Cho, assembled an impressive lineup:
∘ Professor Ji-Hyun Kim (Chung-Ang University) challenged a century-old theory with his talk on "Unraveling Nanoparticle Growth: Beyond a Century-Old Theory."
∘ Professor Sung Jee Kim (POSTECH) bridged the gap between clusters and quantum dots in his presentation.
∘ Professor Jungwon Park (Seoul National University) showcased the fascinating world of real-time liquid electron microscopy, making the invisible visible.
∘ Professor Sangwoon Yoon (Chung-Ang University) explored why gold nanoparticles truly deserve their "golden" reputation through their plasmonic properties.
∘ Professor Sunmin Ryu (POSTECH) dove into the molecular excitons found in two-dimensional organic crystals.
The symposium did exactly what great scientific gatherings should: it sparked conversations, challenged assumptions, and mapped out exciting new directions for nanomaterials research. For everyone in attendance, it was a day of discovery that reminded them why they fell in love with science in the first place.
SRC Symposium: Advances in Nanomaterials Science
SRC 시스템 화학 글로벌 연구센터(단장 성재영 회원, 중앙대)에서 주최한 특별세션이 개최되었다. Moungi G. Bawendi(MIT)의 강연에 이어 김지현 회원(중앙대), 김성지 회원(POSTECH), 박정원 회원(서울대), 윤상운 회원(중앙대), 류순민 회원(POSTECH)이 강연을 진행하였으며, SRC의 주요 연구성과와 향후 연구 방향을 공유하였다.
