Yellow Dust Mask: The Shield We Use Today

Image result for yellow dust maskEvery morning, before I ride the bus to school, my mother always forces to wear a facial mask whenever we are exposed to outside air. Honestly, I first ignored her advice and always took them off not knowing what harm Korean fine dust can possibly bring to my health.

Outside View UPDATE - May 5th, 2019 I visited Professor's Jang Wook Choi's lab at Seoul National University (SNU) to take a small trip around to understand the environment of an actual university lab. Coincidently, there was the electrospinner machine in one of his labs, and it was significant because it was a preview of one of the main machines I will use for my future experiments. Me (JustinChoi) with SNU's machine Inside View

Update: Professor Cui's Advice

UPDATE  (May 14th, 2019) Recently, Professor Jang Wook Choi had informed me that Professor Cui wanted me to try another project with him in Stanford instead of the fine dust mask particle project that I have been working on. He has recommended me to work with experimenting and researching about flexible batteries that Professor Jang Wook Choi was recently acknowledged for, in his recent invention in making flexible portable charger that you can put on your wrist to charge your Apple Watch. However, this doesn't mean that this fine dust particle journey will end. Even though I will not continue this experiment at Stanford, I will try to experiment and discover more in Professor Choi's laboratory at Seoul National University. It will probably be seen that the battery project with Professor Cui will be continued and introduced newly through another blog, and if made, I will inform and provide a link for more people to see. Once again, this experiment process is not a failu...

Extra: My Interest in Science, Visit to Korean Science Academy

As we move on,I thought it would be great to introduce my interest in science and technology itself and would prove that I went on a field trip on my own to see Professor Jang Wook Choi's lecture at Korean Science Academy (한국과학영재학교) in Busan 6 years ago, when I was still a fourth grader. Through this lecture, even though the topic were to difficult for a 10-year-old to understand, it was a truly heartening experience to even see how science itself works. http://mest.snu.ac.kr/bbs/board.php?bo_table=sub6_1&wr_id=18&page=3
