ABMRC is high-tech 40,229m2 area research facility that was completed
in February 2013. ABMRC strengthens global competency by successful
R&D promotion and medical industry facilitation to foster advanced
research at Yonsei University Health System.
Many excellent research teams(consisting of basic/clinical/industrial researchers), large research
centers, and Bio-companies / convergence research organizations are focusing on research in ABMRC.
They are also dedicated to the commercia-lization of their research outcomes.
Core research facilities such as Genomics center, Imaging center, high-tech operation room, and
Biosafety level-3 laboratory are currently operative.
These facilities are built to fully support research from basic science to preclinical tests. These decisive investments are aimed at successful commercialization and strong competency in research. ABMRC is always open to companies and researchers as a core infrastructure of Severance research-driven hospital.
