Suwon university research program
I conducted lab research under Professor Lee Woo of Suwon University, studying how different LED light colors affect the growth, survival rate, and size of sea monkeys. Over a 10-day experiment, I tracked growth patterns under red, blue, green, and white light using microscopes. My findings revealed that blue light significantly harms aquatic organisms, highlighting the detrimental effects of artificial light. I published my work in the International Young Researchers’ Conference (IYRC) and presented it at the 2024 Scholars Circle Research Summit, earning 3rd place among 70 participants and a $100 prize.
