The ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ Global Research Institute (KGRI) is ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡'s platform for promoting interdisciplinary research that is open to the world. This research grant supports the start-up of new research projects launched at KGRI. As part of our efforts to dramatically advance interdisciplinary research in the Longevity, Security, and Creativity clusters, this program supports the formation of projects in ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡'s core research fields.

At the same time, this is a new within ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ research subsidy from KGRI, part of the "Cluster Research Promotion Project Program," a within ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ research grant aimed at disseminating the true state of research at ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ and enhancing its citations and reputation by publishing outstanding research results as internationally co-authored papers in leading international journals.
