  • The Yoon Suk Yeol administration is promoting the "Global Leap of the Biohealth Industry" as one of its 120 key national policies. Recently, the administration has been showing its commitment by establishing various strategies and presenting blueprints for policy implementation. However, the results felt on the ground are still not sufficient. The biohealth industry is a difficult field to generate policy effects because the related regulations are intricately intertwined and the diverse administrative tasks are scattered in various government departments, where inter-departmental interests differ. To solve this problem, an innovative governance system should be established. In order for the government's recent approach to establish a government-wide control tower to be effective, it should demonstrate a proactive policy commitment and be given practical power to coordinate the interests between departments.

  • 최근 바이오헬스산업의 중요성이 증가함에 따라 정부지원의 혁신성이 요구되고 있으나 지원틀의 한계가 있어 사업화를 위한 지원이 미비하여 보완적 지원체계가 시급한 실정이다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 국내의 기존 지원 및 평가가 따르는 TRL 개념을 고찰하고 이를 중심으로 현재 국내 적용 지원체계 실태와 해외의 지원사례 등을 검토하여, 정부가 펼치고 있는 현 TRL 기반의 지원정책이 오랜 기간과 투자가 많이 소요되는 바이오헬스 분야 사업화를 위해서는 한계를 가지고 있음을 지적하였다. 이를 바탕으로 후기 연구개발단계 문제점 해소를 위한 개선점과 바이오산업의 특성을 반영한 사업화 중심의 새로운 지원체계 개념을 상정하고 연구개발사업에 맞게 제시될 수 있는 정책방향과 연결지었다. 본 연구는 바이오헬스분야 사업화를 위해 연구와 산업의 거리를 좁히는 가이드라인 역할이 될 것임에 의의가 있다 할 것이다.

  • As the photo-voltaic (PV) industry grows, the floating PV has been suggested to resolve current environmental destruction and a lack of installation area. Currently, various floating PV systems have been developed, but there is a lack of studies on how the shape of the floating body and other compositions are affecting structural behavior. In this study, the behavior of the floating PV was investigated at the various length of mooring lines, stiffness of connecting hinges, and size of floating bodies. The shortest mooring lines with the distributed type floating PV showed the least force on the floating body and corresponding motion. A frictionless hinge is safer at the regular and low-height wave, while a stiff hinge is safer at irregular and high-height wave. In addition, due to the bi-axial distribution of the connecting hinge, 45° direction wave was found to be the most dangerous.

  • 본 연구는 IP5국가(KR, EP, JP, US, CN)의 바이오헬스 분야 특허데이터를 기반으로 기술의 융합과 트렌드를 파악하여 해당 산업 분야의 발전 방향을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 기술융합 현황 파악을 위해 특허 동시분류분석 기반의 네트워크분석과 TF-IDF 기반의 텍스트마이닝을 주요 방법론으로 활용하였고, 분석 결과 바이오헬스 산업의 기술융합 클러스터는 크게 (A)치료용 의료기기, (B)의료데이터프로세싱, (C)생체계측용 의료기기의 세 가지 형태로 도출되었다. 또한 기술융합 결과를 토대로 한 트렌드 분석의 결과에서 우리나라는 (B)의료데이터프로세싱 분야에서 시장선도국으로 도출됨에 따라 향후 상업적 가치가 높은 특허로 시장 우위를 선점할 수 있는 가능성이 높다고 분석되었다. 특히 해당 분야는 2019년 1월 국회에서 통과된 '데이터3법'이라는 정책적 변환과 더불어, 국내 바이오헬스 기업들의 의료데이터 활용 가능성이 확대됨에 따라 해당 기술에 대한 기술융합 활성화 정책 수립과 R&D 지원 전략이 필요할 것으로 전망된다.

  • As the industrial paradigm shift, often condensed as the "4th Industrial Revolution," gains momentum, there is a growing need to actively introduce digital healthcare into the medical field. The new administration announced its commitment to become a global leader in the biohealth and digital healthcare sector. To fulfill this pledge, preemptive policy leadership and attention from the government are required. The recent issue of legislating non-face-to-face medical care suggests that introducing digital healthcare goes beyond simply adopting new technologies. Incorporating digital healthcare involves changing the existing healthcare delivery process and coordinating the roles of stakeholders. To successfully change the structure of the medical industry, a mid- to long-term roadmap should be meticulously organized and promoted. Policy efforts are needed to resolve conflicts and lead to compromises through continuous communication with interest groups.

  • GroEL is a typical molecular chaperone. GroEL synthesis patterns at various culture temperatures in Escherichia coli were investigated in this study. No significant differences in the amount of GroEL produced from the chromosome were found at 30 and 37$^{\circ}C$. However, GroEL production increased 3.4-fold at 42$^{\circ}C$. GroEL synthesis was not transient but continuous at 42$^{\circ}C$, although most heat shock gene expression is known to be transient. To understand the role of the groEL structural gene, a groE promoter-lacZ fusion was constructed. Interestingly , while transcriptional fusion is not thermally inducible, it is inducible by ethanol, suggesting that the secondary structure of the groEL transcript is involved in thermal regulation of the groEL gene. Secondary structures of groE mRNA at 37 and 42$^{\circ}C$ were compared using the computer program RNAdraw. Distinct structures at the two temperatures were found, and these structures may be related to a high level of GroEL expression at 42$^{\circ}C$.

  • Purpose: This article was to collect data on the safety of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in children with underlying medical conditions. Methods: We constructed a prospective cohort of children and adolescents aged 5 to 19 years who had received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Patients diagnosed with and treated for chronic kidney disease, autoimmune disease, or other chronic conditions at the Seoul National University Children's Hospital were recruited from June to December 2022. A mobile survey questionnaire was sent to their guardians. The presence of adverse events on the day (day 0), 3 weeks (day 21), and 6 months (day 180) after the 1st dose of COVID-19 vaccine was recorded by the guardians. Results: A total of 73 children participated. The median age was 14 years, and 64.4% of the patients were male. On the day of immunization, 65.8% of the patients reported at least one adverse event. Pain at the injection site, fatigue, headache, arthralgia, and myalgia were the most common symptoms. The prevalence of adverse events decreased over time (65.8% on day 0, 27.4% between days 0 and 21, and 24.6% between days 21 and 180). Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection after the 1st dose occurred in 17 patients (23.3%) and one of the patients (5.88%) was hospitalized due to infection. Conclusions: Adverse events after COVID-19 vaccination were generally mild in children and adolescents with underlying medical conditions. Our findings provide evidence for the safety of COVID-19 vaccination in the vulnerable pediatric population.

  • 본 연구는 반도체 기업의 인력난을 해소하여 인재 육성과 산업 성장의 선순환 체계를 구축하기 위해 대학의 반도체 부트캠프 운영 전략을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 반도제 분야 전문가 18명에게 설문 및 면담 조사를 수행하고 이를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 부트캠프의 필요성은 '다양한 기업수요에 부응', '현장 투입이 가능한 인재 양성'에 대한 공감대가 높았으며, 프로그램 목표에 대한 의견으로 '이공 분야 전공의 졸업 예정자, 졸업생 대상 교육을 통한 실무역량 강화'와 '각 단위 공정에 대한 전문지식을 갖춘 전문인재 양성'에 대한 동의 정도가 가장 높았다. 반도체 부트캠프 교육과정은 현장 체험·이론·실습 교육 후 현장 실무 프로젝트를 수행하는 방식이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구가 반도체 분야 부트캠프를 대학교육에서 효과적으로 운영하기 위한 전략을 수립하기 위한 기초자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.

  • Background: The aim of this study was to estimate the number of workers exposed to diesel engine exhaust (DEE) by industry and year in the Republic of Korea. Method: The estimates of workers potentially exposed to DEE in the Republic of Korea were calculated by industry on the basis of the carcinogen exposure (CAREX) surveillance system. The data on the labor force employed in DEE exposure industries were obtained from the Census on Establishments conducted by the Korea National Statistical Office from 1993 to 2013. The mean values of prevalence rates adopted by EU15 countries were used as the primary exposure prevalence rates. We also investigated the exposure prevalence rates and exposure characteristics of DEE in 359 workplaces representing 11 industries. Results: The total number of workers exposed to DEE were estimated as 270,014 in 1993 and 417,034 in 2013 (2.2% of the total labor force). As of 2013, the industry categorized as "Land transport" showed the highest number of workers exposed to DEE with 174,359, followed by "Personal and household services" with 70,298, "Construction" with 45,555, "Wholesale and retail trade and restaurants and hotels" with 44,005, and "Sanitation and similar services" with 12,584. These five industries, with more than 10,000 workers exposed to DEE, accounted for 83% of the total DEE-exposed workers. Comparing primary prevalence rates used for preliminary estimation among 49 industries, "Metal ore mining" had the highest rate at 52.6%, followed by "Other mining" with 50.0%, and "Land transport" with 23.6%. Conclusion: The DEE prevalence rates we surveyed (1.3-19.8%) were higher than the primary prevalence rates. The most common emission sources of DEE were diesel engine vehicles such as forklifts, trucks, and vans. Our estimated numbers of workers exposed to DEE can be used to identify industries with workers requiring protection from potential exposure to DEE in the Republic of Korea.
