What I value most is not just the knowledge gained, but the way DKD approaches scientific inquiry — always starting from people, from the real needs of patients. I came to understand that being a great scientist requires not only logic, but also compassion.”
RESEARCH INTERN AT DKD
“During my research internship at DKD, I not only had the opportunity to access proprietary phospholipid technology, but also to directly participate in formulation improvement processes, collaborate with clinical doctors, and witness real cases of burns and chronic wounds healing without scarring.What I value most is not just the knowledge gained, but the way DKD approaches scientific inquiry — always starting from people, from the real needs of patients.

RESEARCH FELLOWS & ACADEMIC COLLABORATION
Overview
DKD is a research and development (R&D) platform focused on biomimetic excipient technologies applied in regenerative medicine, burn–ulcer–necrosis treatment, and localized endocrine modulation. We welcome research fellows, graduate students, and interns to join us in developing, evaluating, and advancing next-generation biological technologies.
Open Research Directions
- Scar-free tissue regeneration: the role of actin and membrane proteins under the influence of phospholipid excipients.
- Solvent-free nano-liposome technology: applications and optimization of particle formation via biological interactions.
- Enzyme – curcumin – phospholipid integration: chemical transformation and pharmacodynamics in topical gels/liquid formulations.
- Preclinical models: evaluation of tissue recovery through in vivo models and ex vivo simulations.
- Lipid metabolism combined with RF energy: lipase-mediated catalysis supporting fat elimination via respiration.
Training & Collaboration Goals
- Interdisciplinary mindset: cultivating a new generation of scientists integrating biology, medicine, chemistry, physics, nanomaterials, and excipient technologies.
- Translational research: bridging research with real-world applications, including commercialization and humanitarian treatment based on clinical data.
- Academic mentorship: supporting international publications, and guiding theses, dissertations, and research projects at institutional levels.
- Research network expansion: building collaborations with universities, institutes, and hospitals both domestically and internationally.
Participation Models
- DKD-supported research fellows: receive technical mentorship, materials, and analytical tools.
- Final-year internships: for students in Pharmacy, Biology, Biotechnology, Regenerative Medicine, and related fields.
- Research collaborators: flexible part-time or remote engagement.
- Group-based collaboration: partnering with university or institutional research groups for joint projects.
