[About Institut Pasteur Korea]



Institut Pasteur Korea (IPK) is Korea’s non-profit research institute established in 2004 based on the scientific collaboration between Korea and France, with the aim to benefit global public health through infectious disease research. Multinational researchers from more than 10 countries around the world are utilizing advanced capabilities and infrastructures such as the image-based drug discovery screening platform (phenomic screen) to investigate occurrence mechanisms and accelerate drug discovery for novel infectious diseases such as MERS, Zika, and COVID-19, as well as diseases that threaten humanity today, including viral hepatitis, tuberculosis, antibiotic-resistant infections, neglected diseases, and cancer. As a member of the Institut Pasteur International Network (IPIN), consisting of 33 member institutes in 25 countries across 5 continents, IPK plays a key role in leading early drug discovery within the Network. Moreover, by providing source technology to bridge the gap between Korea and international biomedical science and by facilitating multidisciplinary global projects, IPK is contributing to Korea's accumulation of science, knowledge, and technology resources as well as global infectious disease response and preparedness.
