Research achievements of synthesizing new physiological activation materials and functional organic molecules
Research outcomes recognized internationally such as being selected in ‘prominent international academic cover papers’
Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry in England and appointed as YU Chunma Seated Professor in 2016
The ‘Lee Tae-gyu Academic Award’ is an award established to commemorate the achievements of the late Dr. Lee Tae-gyu, who was a pioneer for domestic chemistry development, by the Korean Chemical Society and Lee Tae-gyu Memorial Project Association and the award is granted to scientists who made significant research achievements in any field of chemistry.
Professor Lee conducted research on the synthesis of new physiological activation materials and functional organic molecules and published 345 papers as of current in international academic journals (SCI journals), thus being recognized for his contributions to the development of chemistry. At the 2020 Korean Chemical Society Fall General Meeting on the 21st, Professor Lee gave a speech in commemoration of winning the award for his research achievements on ‘Development of New Synthesis Methods of Physiological Activation Substance Aromatics and Hetero Aromatics’.
Professor Lee’s papers were recognized internationally for the research achievements by being selected as the cover paper in internationally prominent academic journals such as the British Chemistry Society’s ‘Organic Chemistry Frontiers’ and ‘Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis’ that is published by the global publishing company, Wiley.
