Project |
| |
|
| |
The Institute has received a research fund
from the Korea Research Foundation in October 2001 that
supports a 6 year research project entitled ¡®Fundamental
and clinical studies applying east-west medicine to strengthen
international competitiveness and to globalize Korean
Oriental medicine.¡¯ The grant consisted of $230,000 from
the government and $115,000 from Kyung Hee University
in 2005. Professor Jin-Il Kim, director of this institute,
is leading this project as a principle investigator.
Purposes of project : Purposes of this project were to
(1) meet the school agenda in which 'research on East-West
medical treatment to strengthen the international competitiveness
of Korean Oriental medicine¡¯has been chosen as the promotion
domain; (2) construct a collaborative research system
between the Eastern and Western medicine; (3) globalize
the resources of Korean Oriental medicine, and to (4)
construct a information system to utilize knowledge in
Korean Oriental medicine. |
