Government-sponsored Research Institutes(GRIs) have played a great role to the development of Korea Science and Technology(S&T) However, GRIs are facing with challenges of change for their role and function, appearing emerging technology, accelerating technological innovation and increasing research capabilities of other organizations(i.g., universities and firms). We will argue that GRIs should increase competitiveness of their focused research discipline in order to produce a superior outcome and in charge of distinguished role compared with other organizations. This paper aims to suggest a alternative which could increase competitiveness of GRIs's focused research discipline. As a case, in this paper, we analyzed Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology(KRIBB) which is a part of GRIs in Korea.

Government-sponsored Research Institutes (GRIs) have made a great contribution to the development of Korea's Science and Technology (S&T). However, recently, GRIs are facing the challenge of many problems, for instance, absence of reasonable strategies, insufficient resources, and so on. Therefore, many GRIs are required for solving these problems by enhancing their strategic management capabilities. For this purpose, this paper suggests a Strategic Management Audit Model for Korean GRIs. The concept of Strategic Management Audit Model has not been widely adopted in Korean GRIs. In this paper, we suggest GRI-specific Strategic Management Model and apply it to Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI), which is under the Korea Research Council of Fundamental Science and Technology (KRCF). Based on our strategic management audit, we propose several potential strategies for Korean Basic Research Institutes (KBSI). Our model and its implications will also be helpful for other Korean GRIs.

Government-sponsored Research Institutes (GRIs) have made a great contribution to the development of Korea Science and Technology(S&T). Because of appearing emerging technology, accelerating technological innovation, and increasing research capabilities of other research organizations (universities and firms), however, many problems have been presenting in a GRIs's function and role. With this change in S&T environment, the need for strategic management of GRls has been increased. In these days, firms have been using a strategic management audit for their strategic management. Therefore, in this paper, we will suggest strategic management audit, which could be applied to Korean GRIs

The aim of this study lies on verifying the mediation effect of organizational justice in the relationship between R&D personnel's job characteristics and organizational performance within their Government-sponsored research institute. For this, a survey was conducted on 362 R&D personnel members from 25 state-sponsored research institutes under National Research Council of Science & Technology, and then, a multiple regression analysis was used to seek any possible relationship. As a result, job characteristics such as autonomy and feedback were found to have positive (+) influence on organizational commitment. In addition, the result of the mediation effect of organizational justice indicated that the impact was made only by autonomy. This study finds its significance in the fact that it revealed the relationship between job characteristics and job satisfaction among R&D personnel in state-sponsored research institutes who have rarely been the source of objectives in related studies, and that it revealed organizational justice mediated the relationship.

Government-sponsored Research Institutes(GRIs) have made a great contribution to the development of Korea's Science and Technology(S&T). However, recently GRIs are facing the challenge of many problems. For instance, absence of reasonable strategies, insufficient resources and so on. Therefore, many GRIs are being asked for solving their problems with successful strategic management. This paper suggests a strategic management model to solve their problems and to cope with the changing S&T environment. In this paper, The strategic management model for GRIs which was thoroughly considered strategic management process suggested to response the need of their change and to perform their strategic management successfully. As a case of GRIs to apply this model, in this paper, Korea Basic Science Institute(KBSI) that is part of the Korea Research Council of Fundamental Science and Technology(KRCF) was analyzed. As a result of analysis with this model which applied to KBSI, various strategies and alternatives were suggested.

Korea's government-sponsored research institutes (GRIs) have contributed a lot to the economic development of Korea. They have become major components of the Korean national innovation system. However, in these days, they have been blamed for low productivity and inefficiency, as well as insufficient contribution to national development. This paper argues that the major problem of Korea's GRIs lies in their concentration in a few regions, e. g. Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Daedeok. It argues that they should be fairly distributed among regions in order to contribute to the development of Korea effectively. In this regard, this paper explores the relevant policy options to effectively distribute Korean GRIs among regions. It suggests two categories of distribution scenarios. The first category is based on the types of GRIs to be distributed. This category has three scenarios: existing GRIs, branch institutes of existing GRIs, and new GRIs. The second category is based on the jurisdiction of GRIs. It has also three scenarios: GRI system as an independent sector, GRI-university cooperation system, and integration of GRIs to regional universities. These scenarios have advantages and disadvantages, respectively. Therefore, we must find a rather satisfactory scenario based on the mixture of scenarios of both categories.

Objectives: To examine the fundamental characteristics of interventional clinical trials registered in the CRIS (Clinical Research Information Service) database. Methods: We systematically analyzed the status of Korean medical interventions using the search function of the CRIS database. Results: From 2010 to January 2020, 267 Korean medicine-related clinical trials were registered with CRIS. The studies, which included many randomized trials (80.14%), focused primarily on demonstrating the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture and Korean herbal remedies. Most of these studies were government-sponsored and researcher-led clinical trials, but a few were company-sponsored trials. All trials were small and need improvement. Conclusion: This study reviews the current status of clinical trials in the field of Korean medicine and the basic data that can be used to create evidence-based Korean medicine.
