Seoul Research Program & Global Research Program

Directed by Harvard Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology Dr. Samuel Kunes (Pew Scholar in Biomedical Sciences), this curriculum investigates neural circuitry, memory formation, and experimental design. Students develop hypothesis-driven reasoning and author a collegiate-style neurobiology paper.Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology at Harvard University, Dr. Samuel Kunes is a celebrated neuroscientist and geneticist whose laboratory explores the fundamental cellular mechanisms of learning, memory, and neurodegenerative disease. A Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences and recipient of the Damon Runyon–Walter Winchell Fellowship, Professor Kunes guides students through experimental design and molecular neurobiology with the uncompromising academic rigor of Harvard's premier bioscience programs.

Mentored by Caltech Professor of Chemistry and Feynman Prize Winner Dr. Brian Stoltz, this elite program covers advanced organic synthesis, chemical reaction mechanisms, and bioactive drug design. Students gain direct exposure to Caltech-caliber laboratory logic and chemical inquiry.Professor of Chemistry at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and Director of the Stoltz Group, Dr. Brian Stoltz is the recipient of the prestigious Feynman Prize and an internationally recognized pioneer in synthetic organic chemistry. Renowned for inventing groundbreaking chemical transformations, asymmetric catalysis methods, and total syntheses of bioactive natural products, Dr. Stoltz trains students in the rigorous mechanistic logic and molecular design that define world-class chemical biology laboratories.
