The STAR (Stem cell for Advanced Regeneration) Laboratory was established in 2024 by Professor Yohan Kim in the Department of MetaBioHealth at Sungkyunkwan University. The STAR Laboratory focuses on interdisciplinary research that combines basic science and clinical applications, with a particular emphasis on the development of patient-derived stem cells and organoids. Through these efforts, the lab conducts research from various regenerative medicine perspectives.
