EK in NYC

I’m Edward, an incoming freshman at MIT for Brain and Cognitive Sciences (Course 9). I'm Korean-American and grew up in both Seoul and New Jersey.

I'm mainly interested in neuroscience, and I've spent the last few years on a number of related projects. You can check out some of my work via the Regeneron Science Talent Search, where I competed in 2026.

Throughout high school, I sang in a number of choirs. I'm also a big fan of badminton, though I only picked it up recently.
