The IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience Receives the Highest Grade in its Fifth-Year Performance Evaluation
The IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience (QNS) at Ewha Womans University received the highest grade in its performance evaluation, which is conducted on IBS research centers that have been in operation for five years since their inception. The Institute for Basic Science (IBS), a government-funded research institute established to conduct world-class basic science research and now operates a total of 33 research centers including the QNS at Ewha Womans University, conducted the first performance evaluation for research centers that had been active over five years since their foundation. This performance evaluation is an essential process that determines whether each research center continues to be operated, and is based on qualitative assessment of scientific excellence, talent acquisition and cultivation, organizational management, etc. The evaluation committee, comprised of distinguished global scholars in basic science, recognized the world-class scientific excellence of the QNS in this evaluation. During the evaluation, the QNS presented outstanding research results, suggesting the potential of the world’s smallest storage medium and successfully performing the world’s smallest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), based on its research environment including world-class, low vibration laboratories, and ideal research culture. The QNS was also highly acclaimed for its cultural diversity with a high proportion of foreign researchers, as well as for nurturing next-generation talents, especially women leaders. Indeed, women account for 45 percent of the researchers at the QNS. Ewha launched the QNS on January 1, 2017, under the agreement with the IBS. Andreas Heinrich, Director of the QNS, joined the university as a distinguished professor of the Department of Physics and the first director of the QNS in 2016 after leading research at IBM in the United States for 18 years, and has laid the foundation for the research center by not only designing the low vibration laboratories, but also establishing the state-of-the-art research facilities. With his unique leadership and professionalism, he has brought unprecedented achievements in the short span of five years. The QNS’s research focuses on designing qubits (quantum bits), the basic unit of information in a quantum computer, by using quantum spins on surfaces. Heinrich said, “So far, the QNS has gone through big challenges and I am proud that it has grown to this level in a short span of time with its host Ewha Womans University,” and he added, “The evaluation standard in Korea is so high that we are all making our best effort to meet that standard.” 2022.08.05.

[일반] [글로벌사회공헌원] 140주년 Global Leader Lecture 4 <기후변화, 환경노출과 건강: 과학적 근거에서 형평성과 실천까지> (10.19.(월), 중강당)
이화글로벌사회공헌원에서는 이화 창립 140주년 Global Leader Lecture Series 네 번째 순서로 덴마크 코펜하겐대학교 공중보건학·환경역학 분야의 세계적인 연구자인 Zorana Jovanovic Andersen 교수의 특별강연을 개최합니다. - 일시: 10.19.(월) 11시~12시 - 장소: 대학원관 중강당 → 사전등록 바로가기 - 참석대상: 이화인 누구나 - 주요 강연 내용 * 기후변화와 환경 노출이 건강에 미치는 영향에 관한 역학적 근거 * 대기오염 및 극한기후로 인한 건강영향과 건강 불평등(Health Equity) * 미래 세대의 건강 보호를 위한 글로벌 협력과 거버넌스 * 기후·보건 위기 대응을 위한 과학적 근거 기반의 정책과 실천 - 본 강연은 영어로 진행됩니다. - 만족도 조사에 응해주시는 분들께 커피 기프트콘을 드립니다. Andersen 교수는 대기오염과 기후변화를 비롯한 다양한 환경적 노출이 인류의 건강에 미치는 영향을 연구해 온 석학으로, 현재 유럽호흡기학회(European Respiratory Society, ERS) Advocacy Council Chair를 맡고 있습니다. 특히 대기오염과 극한기후가 호흡기 및 심혈관계 건강에 미치는 영향과 건강 불평등(Health Equity)을 비롯하여, 기후변화와 보건 문제에 대한 학술적·정책적 논의를 국제적으로 선도하고 있습니다. 이번 강연에서는 기후변화와 환경 노출이 우리의 건강에 미치는 영향을 과학적 근거를 바탕으로 살펴보고, 기후·보건 위기에 대응하기 위한 국제적 협력과 정책, 실천의 방향을 함께 논의합니다. 기후변화와 환경, 건강의 연결고리를 이해하고 지속가능한 미래를 위한 과학과 정책의 역할을 함께 생각해 볼 수 있는 뜻깊은 자리에 이화 구성원 여러분의 많은 관심과 참여 바랍니다. [일반] Global Leader Lecture Series 4 <Climate Change, Environmental Exposures, and Health: Evidence, Equity and Action> EGISE(Ewha Global Institute for Sustainable Partnership and Empowerment) is pleased to present a special lecture by Professor Zorana Jovanovic Andersen, a world-renowned scholar in public health and environmental epidemiology at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, as the fourth lecture in the Ewha Womans University 140th Anniversary Global Leader Lecture Series. - Date & Time: October 19 (Mon.), 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. - Venue: Emerson Chapel, Ewha Graduate School Building → Registration - Eligibility: Open to all Ewha community members - Key Topics * Epidemiological evidence on the health impacts of climate change and environmental exposures * Health impacts of air pollution and extreme weather events, and health equity * Global collaboration and governance to protect the health of future generations * Evidence-based policies and actions to address the climate and health crisis - The lecture will be conducted in English. - Participants who complete the satisfaction survey will receive a coffee gift voucher. Professor Andersen is a leading researcher in the health impacts of various environmental exposures, including air pollution and climate change. She currently serves as Chair of the Advocacy Council of the European Respiratory Society (ERS). Her research has particularly focused on the effects of air pollution and extreme weather events on respiratory and cardiovascular health, as well as health inequities. She has also played a leading international role in advancing academic and policy discussions on climate change and health. In this lecture, Professor Andersen will explore the health impacts of climate change and environmental exposures based on scientific evidence and discuss directions for international collaboration, policy, and action in response to the climate and health crisis. This special lecture offers a valuable opportunity to deepen our understanding of the interconnectedness of climate change, the environment, and human health, and to reflect together on the role of science and policy in building a sustainable future.
