Dr. Kang Sungjoo (also known as Hangseong) is an astronomer and science communicator, actively engaging with the public as a member of the science YouTube channel "Not Science," which has 1.36 million subscribers. Drawing on his extensive experience in making science accessible and entertaining, he plans to share compelling science stories during this lecture as well.

The Distinguished Speaker Lecture is open to everyone, not just K-MEDI hub employees. Registration can be completed on-site on the day of the event.

K-MEDI hub and Dr. Kang Sungjoo are known to share a close relationship. In October last year, a researcher from the New Drug Development Support Center appeared on the "Not Science" channel in a segment titled "From DNA Barcodes to the Birth of the FDA! The Hidden History of New Drug Development?!"-a collaboration that marked their ongoing partnership. Through consistent communication, K-MEDI hub and Dr. Kang Sungjoo continue to share insights on science, content, and practical experiences.

Chairman Park Guseon of K-MEDI hub stated, "We have created an opportunity for the hub of advanced medical industry innovation and a science communicator to come together around the theme of science. I hope many people will participate, as this is a chance to learn about science in an easy and engaging way, breaking down the barriers of difficulty."

Meanwhile, last year K-MEDI hub renewed the "Distinguished Speaker Lecture" series to expand program participation opportunities for local residents. Through these lectures, the foundation has helped participants enhance their scientific and humanistic literacy on familiar topics such as sports, natural history, and artificial intelligence, while also leading the revitalization of Daegu Innovation City.
