Euicheol Lim

Eui-cheol Lim is a Research Fellow and leader of Solution Advanced Technology team in SK Hynix. He received the B.S. degree and the M.S. degree from Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea, in 1993 and 1995, and the Ph.D. degree from Sungkyunkwan University, suwon, Korea in 2006. Dr.Lim joined SK Hynix in 2016 as a system architect in memory system R&D. Before joining SK Hynix, he had been working as an SoC architect in Samsung Electronics and leading the architecture of most Exynos mobile SoC. His recent interesting points are memory and storage system architecture with new media memory and new memory solution such as CXL memory and Processing in Memory. In particular, he is proposing a new computing architecture based on PIM, which is more efficient and flexible than existing AI accelerators, to process generative AI and LLM (large language Model) that is currently causing a sensation.

LaTonya Kilpatrick

LaTonya Kilpatrick-Liverman leads the Early Research Oral Care, Devices, and Clinical Methods group at Colgate Palmolive Co.  She and her Team are responsible for exploring current and emerging technologies in biological and related interdisciplinary sciences to assess wellness states and develop targeted and personalized solutions to improve overall health.  Her Team is also responsible for developing advanced therapies and devices to prevent disease and improve and monitor health.

LaTonya has over 30 years of experience conducting research in skin and oral biology. She is the author of several patents, book chapters, and journal articles, and has served on the Editorial Advisory Board of the International Journal of Cosmetic Science, the Chemistry and Chemical Biology Industrial Advisory Board at Rutgers University, and on the Biomaterials Symposium Advisory Board at Rutgers University.

LaTonya has volunteered in a number of education based outreach programs sponsored by Colgate Palmolive, the American Chemical Society, and various community groups.  She finds joy leveraging every opportunity to give back and share her experiences.

LaTonya joined the Colgate Piscataway GTC in 1992.  She holds a BA degree in Chemistry from Hampton University and a PhD degree in Chemistry from Princeton University.

Yvonne Kapila

Yvonne Kapila is a clinician-scientist with over 20 years of experience studying the basic mechanisms and translational and clinical aspects of periodontal disease pathogenesis and head and neck cancer carcinogenesis using in vitro and in vivo models and human clinical studies.

Her early research focused on understanding the basic extracellular matrix (ECM) processes and host-microbial mechanisms that govern head and neck cancer tumorigenesis and periodontal disease pathogenesis.

Kapila made important discoveries focused on the cell and molecular biology mechanisms that regulate anoikis; programmed cell death or apoptosis triggered by the loss of extracellular matrix contacts.

Kapila's recent research has extended to omics approaches and biomarker discovery for head and neck cancer using metabolomics and microbiome approaches.

Her related work in sirtuin biology and oral cancer were seminal in showing that sirtuin 3, a metabolic enzyme, regulates and promotes oral cancer tumorigenesis.

Recently funded projects in her lab have focused on host-microbial interactions and the novel role of bacteriocins in biomedical applications, including as modulators of tumorigenesis and disease-associated biofilms and the oral microbiome.
