We are interested in understanding how the brain works. We use molecular/genetic methods in rodents along with quantitative models to analyze data. We study more complex cognitive functions using non-human primates. Finally, we are interested in developing artificial intelligence inspired by brain mechanisms. If you become interested in the lab, feel free to send me an email (HyungGoo.R.Kim@gmail.com).
We are looking for highly motivated post-doctoral researchers and graduate students who are interested in learning, motivation, and decision-making in the brain. You can apply for the PhD, MS, or MS/PhD program through the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the Sungkyunkwan University or Department of Intelligent Precision Healthcare Convergence(IPHC). Undergraduate majors such as neuroscience, biology, physics, computer science, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, and psychology would be a plus. You will have a stipend and tuition support. Many foreign students are doing great sciences at SKKU.
Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) Natural Science Campus is located in Suwon, which is a clean, safe, and beautiful city nearby Seoul in South Korea. SKKU is a highly ranked, research-oriented university founded in 1398 (the oldest university in Asia; Check out the impact of SKKU on the history of Korea imprinted on the bills.
