The 7th KAPAL Annual Conference & The 13th ABES 

“Empowering Global Collaboration and Strategy in the Future of Life Science.”

안녕하세요.

다가오는 10월 27 일 (금요일)과 10월 28일(토요일) 양일에 걸쳐 개최되는 한미생명과학인 협회 (카팔) 연례 컨퍼런스 KAPAL Annual Conference (KAC*)와 Joint Annual Symposium for NIH-KSA and KWiSE에 여러분을 초대합니다.

올해의 주제는 “Empowering Global Collaboration & Strategy in the Future of Life Science” 로 다양한 각도에서의 발표들과 세션/네트워크 등을 통해, 생명과학분야의 국제협력에 보탬이 되고자 준비하였습니다.

10월 27일 개최되는 카팔 연례학회는 신약 연구, 개발 및 상용화 관련 전문가들이 모여 신약연구 및 개발, 물질 특허 및 미국 내 임상 시험에 대한 사례 등의 의견을 서로 교환하고 소통하기 위한 컨퍼런스 입니다. 더불어 한국과 미국간 바이오 공동 사업을 추진하고 인재 채용 및 교류에 적극적으로 동참하여, 양국의 바이오 산업 발전에 기여하기 위해 노력하고 있습니다.

카팔은 NIH와 FDA뿐 아니라 규모가 큰 다수의 바이오 회사가 위치한 메릴랜드의 지리적인 이점을 활용하여 이번 연례학회를 통해 다양한 바이오, 신약개발 산업 관련 연구자들 뿐 아니라 관련 산업 종사자들 간의 활발한 정보 교환 및 네트워킹을 기대하고 있습니다.

특별히 제7회 카팔 연례학회는 아래의 주제들을 중심으로 프로그램을 준비하였습니다.

• Exit strategy: Public Market in Korea and the US

• Preparation for Bio and Healthcare Fundraising in the US (Investment)

• Strategy for Global Collaboration in the US

• IP & Regulatory Strategy in Bio-Industry

• Global Strategy for Commercialization with Government Organization

• Regulatory Strategies in Drug Development

카팔 연례학회는 한미 양국의 기관 및 기업의 지원을 받아 매년 개최되고 있습니다. 자세한 내용은 행사 웹사이트(www.kapal.org)를 참조해 주시고, 질문과 건의사항은 contact@kapal.org로 문의바랍니다.

13th Annual Bioscience and Engineering Symposium (ABES) by NIH-KSA and 2023 KWiSE Joint Annual Symposium by NIH and DC Chapter

10월 28일에 개최되는 행사는 NIH-KSA (Korean Scientist Association) 그리고 KWISE (Korean-American Women in Science & Engineering)에서 준비하는 심포지엄으로, NIH에서 연구하시는 한인 과학자분들을 중심으로, 인근 지역 (DMV)의 과학자/학생들을 포함, 원천기술과 연구를 발표함과 동시에 차세대 과학자 로서의 역량개발을 목적으로 하는 심포지엄입니다.

올해는 특히 환자 중심의 임상이행 연구들을 중심으로 하는 발표들을 준비하여 국제 협력이라는 모토에 맞게, 이 발표들을 통해 현장내에서의 국제 협력들이 이루어 지길 바래 봅니다. 새로운 관점에서 보는 생명과학이라는 세션을 통해 기존과 다른 사고로 보는 생명과학의 미래도 재미있게 보고 들으실 수 있으리라 기대해 봅니다. 2023년에 이룬 다양한 생명과학분야의 연구업적 등을 발표함으로써 앞으로의 혁신 신약개발의 발판이 되는 심포지엄이니 많은 관심과 참여 바랍니다. 둘째 날 행사의 질문과 건의사항은 lisa.kim2@nih.gov로 문의바랍니다.
