Webinar: Real-time Visualization of In Vivo Immune Responses: A New Paradigm in Preclinical Research

Webinar: Real-time Visualization of In Vivo Immune Responses: A New Paradigm in Preclinical Research

This webinar features two expert-led talks showcasing advanced approaches in in vivo biomedical research, with a focus on immune dynamics and real-time visualization in living systems.

1. Invited Talk Real-time
Visualization of Immune Cell Trafficking in the Tumor Microenvironment

  • Keehoon Jung, PhD Associate Professor, Department of Anatomy, Seoul National University College of Medicine Visiting Associate Professor, Stanford University School of Medicine

 

Professor Jung’s research centers on cancer immunology, with a strong focus on myeloid cell trafficking and dynamic immune–tumor interactions within the tumor microenvironment. In this session, he will present advanced in vivo imaging approaches that enable real-time visualization of immune cell behavior in living tissues.

2. Technical Talk Seeing In Vivo Immune Responses: The Power of Intravital Microscopy

  • Pilhan Kim, PhD Professor, KAIST Graduate School of Medical Science and Engineering

 

Professor Kim will demonstrate how intravital microscopy enables real-time visualization of immune dynamics in living systems, highlighting its role in advancing in vivo research and translational biomedical applications.

  • Dr. Pilhan Kim
    Dr. Pilhan Kim
    Associate Professor, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Daejeon, Korea CEO, IVIM Technology, Inc., Daejeon, Korea

    Pilhan Kim received his bachelor’s and PhD degree in Electrical Engineering from Seoul National University (Korea) in 2000 and 2005, respectively. From 2005 to 2010, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Medical School (Boston, USA) with a cross-disciplinary postdoctoral fellowship from Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP). In 2010, he joined the Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) where he is currently a tenured Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Nanoscience and Technology. His main research interests focus on systemic cellular-level visualization of various preclinical model organism to investigate complex pathophysiology of human disease, leading to the development of an advanced in vivo cellular imaging technology based on an ultrafast laser-scanning intravital microscopy system.
