Culturing Atmosphere for Spontaneous Innovation
Diagnosing “Collaborative Culture” Of Biomedical Science in South Korea
In this article, the authors review collaborations in the emerging biomedical sciences in South Korea. At the global level, several studies have made substantial contributions to the understanding of the underlying structure of collaboration networks across countries. Despite the increase in international collaborations, researchers have rarely paid attention to the structural pattern of internal collaboration among individual actors that reflect…
Denotation and connotation in public representation
This article analyzes the internet discourses of Korean people who supported Hwang Woo Suk despite the disclosure of his scientific misconduct. During the controversial period, those who supported Hwang constructed a narrative of a fallen hero trapped by jealous rivals and an “unjust” society. The supporters’ dramatized discourses compete with expert opinions of Seoul National University’s Audit Board and prosecutors that investigated the scienti…
Governing Discourses of Stem Cell Research
A state's stem cell policy characteristically reflects its general approach to governance. This article studies the different trajectories of stem cell policy in the United Kingdom and South Korea from 1997 to 2009, with special attention to the legitimation of stem cell research practices and the response to public opinion.

The Hwang scandal in South Korea illustrates a typical research practice geared towards the exploitation of labor and human resources in response to, and as part of, global competition in the life sciences. This article argues that the ongoing exploitation of young t…

The cloning scandal around South Korean scientist Hwang Woo Suk—who had forged scientific data and taken donor eggs from his PhD student—has often been explained by stereotyped models of cultural difference. As two national features which partly account for the scandal, knowledge acquisition in South Korea has close connections to hierarchies of status and prestige; and the life sciences there have a technological approach focused on applications…
