Kyungbok University Opens Biomedical Center

[Asia Economy (Namyangju) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Kyungbok University has opened a 'Biomedical Center' equipped with state-of-the-art practical training equipment.

The Biomedical Center is a practical training space designed to cultivate outstanding talents with specialized knowledge in the field of biomedical science, centered on the five essential in vitro diagnostic laboratories. It aims to enhance the job skills of creative prospective clinical pathologists through experiments, practical training suitable for fieldwork, and industry-academia joint research.

The center consists of ▲ a 'Clinical Chemistry Laboratory' capable of conducting biochemical tests ▲ a 'Clinical Hematology Laboratory' capable of performing Complete Blood Count (CBC) tests ▲ a 'Clinical Microbiology Laboratory' equipped with devices to directly culture and test microorganisms ▲ a 'Clinical Physiology Laboratory' that analyzes various signals from the human body ▲ and a 'Histopathology Laboratory' where tissue specimens can be directly prepared.

Kim Dae-eun, head of the Department of Clinical Pathology at Kyungbok University, stated, "We expect the newly renovated Biomedical Center to become an innovative practical training center that enhances practical skills and develops individual capabilities." He added, "Going forward, our department will focus its capabilities to become a specialized educational institution for training the best clinical pathologists in the field."

The Department of Clinical Pathology at Kyungbok University achieved a nationwide first-place record with a 100% pass rate in the national clinical pathologist examination, with all 56 expected graduates passing last year, following successes in 2015, 2017, and 2019.
