The University Lights Up with Fall Festivities at Lumines: Prologue
This fall, Lumines: Prologue brought SNU students together for three days of festivities shaped as much by students themselves as by the performances on stage. From student-run booths and games to live music after sunset, the festival offered a lively glimpse into campus life beyond academics. more>>
Launch of KOMQUEST
What becomes possible when leading quantum researchers across three countries join forces? The newly launched KOMQUEST brings together complementary expertise to explore new frontiers in quantum materials and spintronics.
Behind the Curtains of the 30th SNU Language Theater Festival
Eight languages, eight stages, and countless hours behind the curtain. At SNU’s 30th Language Theater Festival, we step behind the scenes with the French troupe to see how students bring a production to life from start to finish.
A New Strategy for Progeria
Progeria can arise from different mutations, limiting mutation-specific gene editing. Prof. Cha Hyuk-Jin's team developed FATE to target a shared disease mechanism, improving abnormalities in patient-derived organoids. Published in Nature Communications.
Nobel Prize-Winning RNA Interference: How a Discovery Saves Lives
A discovery in a tiny worm led to a Nobel Prize—and a new way to tackle disease at its genetic roots. Nobel laureate Craig Mello explores how RNA interference is opening new possibilities for treating genetic diseases.
Now Showing: The SNU Major Universe
With over 130 undergraduate majors to choose from, finding the right academic path can feel overwhelming. At this year’s SNU Major Universe, SNU turned that search into a cinematic journey, inviting students to explore majors as if choosing their next feature film.
Same Ingredients, Better Mixing
Changing the shape of polymer molecules can help different plastic layers mix better without changing their chemistry. Prof. Kim So Youn and Prof. Kim Kyoung Taek’s teams experimentally confirmed a theory proposed more than 40 years ago. Published in ACS Central Science.
