Special Awards

  1. Best Model
  2. Our MARS model is the historically first empirical model to have ever examined the joint effects of moisture content, temperature, and storage length. With the astonishing flexibility to accommodate for the relationship beyond the set three variables, the model shines light upon so many more possibilities as it can be easily expanded to encompass the relationship among an indefinite number of variables. Through an idiosyncratic exploration of the interdisciplinary nature of synthetic biology from the perspectives of computer science and non-parametric statistical modeling, our model is indeed a revolutionary initial point to further research on the impact of obscure environmental factors on fungal infection of sored paddy rice. Not only does our model provide a comprehensive understanding of the impact of the joint effect, but also conclusively suggests an optimal course of action to minimize the risk of fungal infection of stored rice.
  3. Integrated Human Practices
  4. 1.8 million Sri Lankan Farmers and 2393 million dollars –- acute malnutrition is an issue that rendered past joint efforts of international organizations trounced. Indeed, today’s paradigm would scoff at us, merely a group of teenagers, attempting such a global problem. As our passions conjoined and efforts led to challenges once insuperable to be overcome, this rigid mantle of who and who cannot contribute to the community no longer exists. As a single concern manifested into our design through our biosensor, active promotion of the issue within communities all over Korea, collaboration with international organizations to reach out to Sri Lanka Farmers, we expanded this global mindset beyond ourselves but to adults and teenagers alike, reinstating the importance of taking action. Our project and the lasting effects we had on our community is a defiant rejection to the paradigm set against youth.
