Roh Seong-hoon (노성훈), a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Seoul National University, was selected as the July recipient of South Korea\'s Science and Technology Award, the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea said on Tuesday. Roh identified how a \"chaperone regulator\" regenerates the cytoskeleton by selecting, assembling and recycling tubulin. He used cryo-electron microscopy to analyse tubulin-chaperone binding at atomic level.

Son Hoon (손훈), a professor at KAIST, has been selected as the June winner of South Korea\'s Science and Technology Award for developing sensor technology that detects small movements in medium and small social infrastructure facilities in real time. The Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation said the technology supports disaster warnings and improves infrastructure safety by combining millimeter-wave radar and MEMS accelerometers to measure acceleration, tilt and displacement with high precision at low cost.
