Organelle Medicine Research Center is a Medical Research Center (MRC) supported by the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) since 2024. We are dedicated to pioneering the emerging field of Organelle Medicine, which focuses on understanding the roles of cellular organelles in health and disease.
Researchers from life sciences, basic medicine, and clinical medicine work together to investigate the organelle proteome, interactome, and signalome. Through these collaborative efforts, we aim to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for metabolic and aging-related diseases.
In addition, the center is committed to nurturing the next generation of global physician-scientists who will lead future advances in biomedical science.
By approaching organelle research with fresh perspectives and interdisciplinary collaboration, we strive to generate impactful discoveries that contribute to healthier lives and the advancement of medical science.
Thank you for your interest in our center.
