▶Interview

​Professor Kil To Chong is a researcher who develops source technology for brain diseases using artificial intelligence, which is emerging as a core of the 4th industrial revolution. He is accomplishing various academic achievements through research that combines the specialized field of artificial intelligence with brain science to improve the quality of human life. In particular, he is trying to identify the genes and biological mechanisms that cause Alzheimer's, which have not yet been accurately identified, and to develop new drugs based on the research results. Currently, he is conducting research on cancer-causing genes using artificial intelligence.

Through such research on the development of brain science source technology, Professor Chong has derived the results of much of the necessary artificial intelligence technologies. He plans to use these research results to discover Alzheimer's-related genes that have not yet been identified and to reveal the mechanisms of the disease to develop new drugs to treat it.

Professor Chong’s research can greatly help prevent personalized diseases by utilizing human genome data, a human genetic map, and can improve human quality of life in various fields such as by providing customized diets and health care.

If artificial intelligence is applied to developing new drugs in South Korea, which is a latecomer in this field, the cost and time required for developing new drugs can be drastically reduced. As a researcher, Professor Chong dreams of a day when South Korea will lead the world in developing new drugs.
