This paper is a theoretically grounded empirical study aimed at shedding light on the Triple Helix of University-Industry-Government (U-I-G) relations in biotechnology cluster of Singapore. It questions the issue about the gap between theoretical consideration of the Triple Helix of U-I-G relations and the actual reality in biotechnology cluster, and the experience of Singapore was investigated. In terms of evolutionary perspective, biotechnology cluster in Singapore has gone through ongoing processes from a certain stage to other, and within the processes the Triple Helix nexus has been found. Analysis of the empirical study reveals significant findings: first, the government policies play a critical role in the operation of U-I-G relations rather than universities; second, therefore, the binding force of U-I-G relationships is based on the government policies being comprehensive including researchers immigration, student scholarship for local students, and tax and non-tax incentives for firms, rather than focusing on a targeted policy; third, the role of government starts from an initial stage, and it's role is ongoing processes by supporting infrastructure, human sources and continuous nourishment enabling the triple helix of U-I-G relations.

This paper analyzes the effects of Korea-US FTA on the pork market in Korea. Without distinction of chilled and frozen pork, previous studies that investigate the impacts of FTA posit single category of pork. Moreover, many prior studies assume the domestic pork and imported one are homogenous. This study fills this gap. The simulated influences of Korea-US FTA on the price of domesitc pork are -2.69 to -15.96 percents. The FTA is simulated to result in the fall of domestic production by 1.35 to 5.6 percents.

The purpose of this study is to detect challenges and matters for improvement, an recent emerging export market with high potential for Korean agricultural products, and to finally find out measures to increase agricultural export to the market. In order to expand the export of agricultural products to Russian Far East, first of all, Competitiveness in terms of quality and price could be enhanced by improving production facilities, developing new technologies and improving logistical system. Secondly, the export volume should be secured in a stable manner, and it can be achieved by systematically running a larger export organization and unifying contact points. Thirdly, the screening, transportation and storage of agricultural products at low temperature should be offered at the local transportation and distribution stage. Fourthly, the consumers of Russian Far East have very little knowledge of the Korean agricultural products. To overcome this, more active PR, promotional and marketing activities are required.

The primary purpose of this study is to identify various factors that affect farmland prices according to changes in the actual transaction price of farmland over the past decade, and to use this to derive policy implications for price stabilization. To this end, the farmland price model are constructed at the parcel level in the case area (Namwon-si, Jinju-si). The analysis method is based on the Hedonic price function, and the OLS and the quantile regression are used for the parcel level model. As a result of estimating the parcel level farmland price model in the case area, the larger the parcel area, the lower the farmland price, and the higher the farmland price outside the agricultural promotion area. It was found that there was a price difference according to the type of special purpose areas, and the location characteristics showed some differences across the cities. The farmland price models presented in this study are suitable for identifying the factors affecting farmland prices, and are expected to be highly utilized in that it is possible to construct flexible variables suitable for regional characteristics.

The change in farmland price has almost always been focused on not only farmers but policy-decision makers; for farmers to get information before purchasing farmland; for policy-decision makers to use appropriate policy tools to stabilize the market. So far the change in farmland price has been calculated as a form of average change on a year-to-year base. Such calculations have become one of the causes which lead to misunderstanding of the farmland market because the year-to-year average change includes changes in price as well as changes in the number of trades and sizes of traded farmland. This paper is designed to suggest a proper method of building a price index for farmland as a tool to review the price change. We considered the applicability of several types of price indices and concluded that a Laspeyres-type price index is the most reasonable choice. A Laspeyres-type price index, however, has a shortcoming in which a reference year's weight may affect the whole period of an index. Thus, we also suggest two other weights, a three-year average including a reference year and a share of farmland. All indices show that farmland prices have risen significantly in recent 10 years. We hope that the indices will be developed into one of the government's formal statistics.

This study explores the meaning of life insurance planner's job experiences achieving job security, high performance and high income. After 6 of life insurance planners working in the field were chosen as the study participants, we use narrative approach to studying the meaning of their job experiences. The study shows that perception about job competency of planners depends on the level of experience: candidates who had no experience at all feel that anyone can perform planner's job, new employees after introduction training program see planners can do with product knowledge and consulting competency, and experienced people admit they can perform successfully only when they have good attitude towards customers and do all their work in a conscientious manner. Also, the meaning of planner's job experiences is identified as awareness of work value and serving customers with their commitment. The anticipated factors that make planner's job performed successfully are playing a role as a teacher, doctor, and angel, being regarded as happiness preacher for economic stability of individuals and families, and displaying their performance as experts.

Nanoparticles are substances that are smaller in size and smaller than cells that make up the skin. Therefore, they are very suitable as mediators for transmitting drugs or genes across cell membranes, and also deliver specific ingredients into the skin.In this study, nanoparticles were extracted from mugwort and particles of around 100 nm were obtained through dynamic light scattering (DLS), and the results of concentration-dependent enhancement of cell viability in fibroblasts were obtained through MTT assay. In addition, it was confirmed that the COL1A1 mRNA expression level was increased and the IL-6 mRNA expression level was decreased through the quantitative real-time PCR analysis method. Moreover, as these nanoparticles were confirmed to be stable, they can be applied not only to cell experiments but also to cosmetic formulations. While the demand for plant-derived ingredients continues to increase, excluding chemical ingredients from the recent cosmetics industry trend, there is a limitation in that there are few research results suggesting the application field of plant-derived nanoparticles. Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of the cosmetic industry at the present time, the results obtained in this study present nanoparticles derived from Artemisia princeps (NDAP) as a highly functional cosmetic material.

우리나라 하구에 조성된 담수호의 수자원은 다양한 용수 목적에 맞게 활용하고 있으며, 수질 기준에 부합하는 용수를 공급하고 담수호 및 간척지의 친환경적 가치를 높이기 위해서는 담수호의 상류 유역 및 유입 오염물질, 그리고 담수호 수체 특성에 대한 종합적인 이해를 기반으로 수질 오염 관리 대책을 수립하는 것이 중요하다. 일반적으로 담수호 개선을 위한 방안의 선정 방식은 연평균 수질 농도를 기준으로 목표하고자 하는 수질 기준의 만족 여부에 대한 평가와 경제적 평가를 함께 고려하여 최적의사결정 기반으로 주로 이루어져 왔다. 그러나 기존의 평가 방법에서는 목표 수질의 만족 여부가 중요하다는 점에서 담수호 수자원의 시기별 활용성에 대한 고려를 간과하기 쉽다. 또한 담수호 수자원 시스템의 수질 악화에 대한 회복탄력성을 높이는 일은 단순히 유역관리대책의 적용에 따른 수질 개선 문제와는 별도로 담수호 수자원 시스템의 지속 가능성과 연관된다는 점에서 기존의 평가 방식을 보완하기 위한 수단이 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 담수호 수자원 관리 방안을 평가하는 데 있어서 회복탄력성의 개념을 활용하였으며, 각 방안에 대한 시간적 변화에 따른 담수호의 회복탄력성 특징을 고려하기 위하여 동적 회복탄력성 개념 및 평가 방법을 도입하였다. 본 연구에서는 우선 기존의 수질 평가 방법에 따라 간월호를 대상으로 수질 개선 방안별 수질 변화를 SWAT-EFDC 연계모형을 통해 모의하고, 연평균 수질 농도와 총인 삭감량에 대해 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 간월호의 지형학적 특성에 따라 간월호 상류 구간의 수질 농도가 다른 구간에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 상류 구역의 경우 준설 시나리오만으로는 목표 수질을 달성하기 어려운 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 상류 구역의 수질 목표 달성을 위해서는 준설 시나리오만으로는 한계가 있으므로 상류 유역 출구부에 위치한 하수처리시설의 총인 배출부하량을 삭감과 추가적인 유역 수질 관리 대책이 필요하다.

This study estimates the VSL(value of a statistical life) as well as the WTP(willingness to pay) for mortality risk reduction using sample selection model with data on liver cancer examination which is associated with little possibility of multi-purpose(i.e. joint production) in averting behavior. The marginal benefits of mortality risk reduction are estimated by applying for household production function model with medical expense and the time required for medical examination of liver cancer. Individuals are more likely to take liver cancer test if they are male, older, higher educated, those with spouse, smoker, more income of household, and more anxious about their health. The costs of liver cancer examination are statistically significantly affected with expected signs by size of mortality risk reduction, sex, period of eduction, those with spouse, and household income. The marginal effect of mortality risk reduction owing to taking liver cancer examination is estimated at 321,097 won. The costs of liver cancer examination are increased by 905 won with more one year of education period and by 1,743 won with more one million won in household income. On liver cancer examination, male spends more 12,310 won than female and those with spouse pay more 7,969 won than those without spouse. Therefore the VSL from mortality risk reduction due to liver cancer examination is 321.10 million won at mean size of mortality risk reduction and mean cost of liver cancer examination. The results of sensitivity tests on costs and effects of liver cancer test shows that the VSLs are estimated in a range from 160.55 million won to 642.19 million won.
