About Me
Youngjae grew up in South Korea, and moved to United States in his junior year of high school. He lived in Chicago for 6 months as an exchange student and after one semester, he wanted to move to Provo, Utah and finished high school. He decided to start his college years at the University of Utah. After his first year, he had to go back to Korea to serve in the Korean military for 2 years. After serving in the military for 2 years, he felt compelled to study prosthetics as several of his fellow soldiers experienced injuries. Youngjae evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of standard radiographic measurements for predicting true anatomical variation of the proximal femur using statistical shape modeling.
