GREETINGS

To address Korea’s healthcare challenges, the K-Health MIRAE Initiative, an innovative and bold research initiative, was launched in 2024.

*MIRAE : Medical Innovation Research AndEvolution

Our goal is to strengthen the health security of our nation by tackling significant healthcare issues such as the next pandemic, a super-aged society, and essential medical crises.

This project has set five missions: ➀ establishing health security, ➁ overcoming unconquered diseases, ➂ securing breakthrough technology in bio-health technology ➃ improving welfare and care services, and ➄ improving essential medical services and technologies. Led by skilled and capable PMs, the project promotes research and development, implementing various strategies to encourage researchers to take bold steps without fear of failure.

We aim to ensure the sustainability of research funding by connecting public and private investments, resolving challenges through innovative research and development, and fostering a culture that embraces failure.

Your interest and support will be a great strength to this bold step. We look forward to creating a healthy and safe future together.

Thank you.
