Education

Kimoon Kim received his B.S. degree from Seoul National University(1976), M.S. degree from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology(KAIST, 1978, advisor: Prof. Mu Shik Jon), and Ph.D. degree from Stanford University(1986; advisor: Prof. James P. Collman). After two year postdoctoral work at Northwestern University(advisor: Prof. James A. Ibers) he started his own academic career at Department of Chemistry, Pohang University of Science and Technology(POSTECH) in 1988 where he is now Distinguished University Professor(POSTECH Fellow).

Work

His current research focuses on developing novel functional materials and devices based on supramolecular chemistry. In particular, his group has been working on a wide variety of functional materials based on cucurbiturils ,[1][2][3][4][5] a family of pumpkin-shaped macrocyclic molecules, and metal-organic porous materials useful for catalysis, separation and gas storage.[6][7][8][9][10][11]

Kim has authored and coauthored 240 papers which have been cited more than 14,300 times with an h-index of 63. Most of his work has been published in the high impact journals such as Nature, Nature Chemistry, Angewandte Chemie, JACS. In particular, the paper published in “Nature” in 2000,[12] which reported the synthesis of homochiral nanoporous crystalline materials using self-assembly and an application for a chiral catalyst, was selected as one of the 35 most notable papers among chemical related papers published in “Nature” from 1950 to 2000 including Watson and Crick’s DNA structure, Kroto and Smalley’s discovery of fullerene, Nicolaou’s Taxol total synthesis, etc.[13]

Since 1997, Kim has been director of the Center for Smart Supramolecules supported by Creative Research Initiatives and later by Acceleration Research program sponsored by the Korean Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MEST). Until recently, he has also been in charge of the Division of Advanced Materials Science(AMS), launched in 2008 with a support from the World Class University(WCU) project of the MEST, as project leader. He has played a key role in establishing research and education programs of AMS. He was named the director of the Center for Self-assembly and Complexity(CSC), Institute for Basic Science(IBS) on August 1, 2012 by the Korean government.
