Prof. Dae-Kyung Kang, Prof. Arjan Narbad, Prof. Gi-Seong Moon, and Mr. Ji Hoon Song



Prof. Dae-Kyung Kang and Ji Hoon Song of the Laboratory of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology (LIMB) at Dankook University visited the Quadram Institute in Norwich, United Kingdom last October 3-7, 2025 to participate in a joint workshop aimed at strengthening research collaboration in microbiome and industrial microbiology.






This strategic meeting brought together leading experts from three institutions: the Quadram Institute, LIMB at Dankook University, and the Microbial Genetic Engineering (MGE) laboratory at Korea National University of Transportation (KNUT). Prof. Kang and Song were joined by Prof. Gi-Seong Moon of KNUT.






The delegation was warmly welcomed by Prof. Arjan Narbad and his team at the Quadram Institute. The workshop served as a platform to discuss joint research initiatives, explore collaborative projects, and exchange insights on emerging technologies in microbiome science, probiotics, and microbial biotechnology.






The partnership between Quadram Institute, LIMB, and MGE laboratory reflects a growing international interest in collaborative microbiome research that bridges fundamental science with real-world industrial applications. Plans are underway to develop joint research proposals, student and faculty exchange programs, and co-authored scientific publications in the future.

 January 16-18, 2023. Yongpyeong, South Korea.


LIMB members together with their professor, Prof. Dae-Kyung Kang, went to Yongpyeong Resort in Gangwon-do to attend the Korean Society for Microbiology and Biotechnology (KMB)'s winter symposium with the theme: 2023 KMB's choice: Five Leading Technologies in Microbiology and Biotechnology. In the said symposium, LIMB  members headed by Prof. Kang listened to presentations related to carbon neutral, culturomics, microbiome, protein design/engineering, and synthetic biology.

And while they're at it, LIMB also took the opportunity to rest, play, and unwind during the trip and had their lab trip in Yongpyeong Ski Resort. With the work accomplished last year, and the work that is awaiting everyone this year, it was a good time to rest and plan the year ahead. To a fruitful 2023, LIMB!

Prof. Dae-Kyung Kang attended the workshop for a BBSRC-funded international partnership on fermented foods and lactic acid bacteria, hosted by Prof. Arjan Narbad at Quadram Institute, Norwith, UK, during Aug 10-15, 2022. This BBSRC-funded grant, from 2022 to 2026, includes holding workshops, reciprocal exchange visits, sharing knowledge, skills training of early stage researchers, development of collaborative research projects, etc.


A great start for future collaborations !

LIMB members went skiing and snowboarding at the Konjiam Ski Resort, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea last January 24-25, 2022. It's part of the annual LIMB laboratory trip, which serves as break from the hustle of everyday research life. Prof. Dae-Kyung Kang understands that proper rest is needed in order to become a productive scientist. He also hopes that this trip will build strong relationship and comradery among laboratory members.
