About
Gunsup Lee is a marine biologist whose work centers on the molecular identification and monitoring of aquatic organisms, particularly microalgae and jellyfish, in Korean coastal waters. His research has pioneered the use of DNA chip technology for rapid and accurate species verification, addressing critical challenges in marine biodiversity and harmful bloom management. Lee’s most cited studies—each garnering 5 citations—include the development of a DNA chip for verifying 25 microalgae species from Korea’s southern coast (2012) and a similar tool for jellyfish identification (2011). These contributions provide essential tools for environmental monitoring, enabling early detection of toxic algal blooms and invasive jellyfish populations that threaten fisheries and public health. By bridging molecular biology and applied marine science, Lee’s work supports sustainable coastal management and ecosystem conservation. His targeted, high-impact approach has established him as a key figure in Korean marine biotechnology, offering practical solutions for preserving marine resources in a rapidly changing ocean environment.
