[Che-student-staff-list] Che-visitingfaculty-list Sang Kim receives South Korea's highest research honor!

[Bob Hanneman]

Arvind and all--This is indeed exciting news. I had the opportunity to
spend considerable time with Sang when he visited the campus on March
25th. We discussed his plans for future activities including his
interest in rejoining the Healthcare Engineering Signature Area 
Committee (HcESAC). I reminded him that it was he who recommended that
the committee focus its activity in the area of assistive technology
which, incidentally, we are still pursuing. I look forward to his return
with great anticipation.--Bob Hannemann--Chair, HcSAC
