About PSK

Welcome remark

Center for cutting-edge pharmaceutical research

Dear Members of the PSK,
I am Mi-Ock Lee, the 53rd president of the PSK.

I express my heartfelt gratitude to our active and supportive members, whose dedication has enabled our society to steadily grow even in the face of the challenges posed by the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

As we enter the executive term of 2023-24, our team is committed to pursuing advancements that align with the core principles of ABCD (Advance-Balance-Common ground-Direction) through the following approaches:

Firstly, our society will take proactive steps to address cutting-edge issues in pharmaceutical sciences, with a specific focus on interdisciplinary research encompassing advanced convergence biosciences, big data, and AI-based drug development. We will also foster collaboration with related societies and enhance exchanges with pharmaceutical societies in Asia, including Japan and China. Additionally, we will work towards elevating the quality and impact of our academic journals, namely "Archives of Pharmacal Research," "Yakhak Hoeji," and the recently launched "Drug Targets and Therapeutics."

Secondly, to cultivate and strengthen the pharmaceutical network for the future generation, we will establish new academic programs catered to newly appointed pharmaceutical researchers. We are dedicated to supporting the research endeavors of undergraduate and graduate students, nurturing the scholars of tomorrow. By fostering networking opportunities with pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, we aim to contribute to the development of new drugs. Furthermore, we are committed to creating inclusive programs that embrace the diversity within our society, fostering harmonious operations.

As we look forward to the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are eager to resume our society's academic activities. Alongside the 53rd PSK executive team, I pledge to exert every effort towards achieving greater heights for our society. I sincerely request the continued affectionate interest and active participation from all our esteemed members, as you have consistently been a source of strength for us.

Sincerely,

Mi-Ock Lee, Ph D.
53rd President of the PSK
