Professor Seung-Bok Choi (MEC) has received the “2025 Best Researcher Award” from the International Research Awards on Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (IRAA, MO). His main contribution and honorable achievement in innovative research is the molecular analysis of Magnetorheological Fluids (MRF). He has published more than 50 articles in MO related journals such as Internal Journal of Molecular Sciences. Specifically, he has focused on constitutive modeling of nana-p
The Role of Genetics in the Academic Success of College Students The relationship between genetics and personal traits such as skin color, height, eye color, and health risks are well understood. However, the relationship between genetics and academic success is less clear. It has been the subject of many new research studies. All research, in general, agrees that many factors, including environmental influences, socioeconomic background, personal motivation, and genetic predispo
Professor Jongseong Brad Choi of the Mechanical Engineering Department at SUNY Korea has been selected for the “Outstanding Young Researcher Program” under the Ministry of Science and ICT’s Basic Research Support Initiative for 2025. This year's selection was highly competitive, with the number of awarded projects reduced by half compared to the previous year. With this selection, SUNY Korea has secured a total of 1.25 billion KRW in funding over five years.
