Abstract
1. Overseas Training Support Program in Korea
Korean Association of Medical Colleges (KAMC) established a Training Center for Innovative Medical Scientists to support the development of future leaders in the biomedical field through its Overseas Training Support Program. The key objectives include providing information and guidance on training institutions, offering logistical support before, during, and after training, and facilitating collaboration with top-tier global research institutions. This presentation outlines the project’s vision, strategic goals, support mechanisms, and achievements, including partnerships with renowned institutions and the status of overseas trainees.
2. Introduction to two single cell atlas
My lab is conducting research aimed at elucidating the mechanisms of human diseases by applying new genomic analysis technologies. To this end, we have established lung, stomach, and intestinal organoids from multiple individuals and are constructing an Organoid Single Cell Atlas (OSCA) through single-cell genomic analysis of these organoids. Additionally, since 2022, we have been leading the Single Cell Atlas of Immune Disease (SCAID) project in collaboration with 23 other laboratories in Korea, collecting single-cell data from samples of patients with 16 immune diseases. In this presentation, we will introduce the progress of these two atlas projects and present our recent research findings.
