Korea Pharmaceutical & BioScience Society (Korea-PBSS) is a Korea-based non-profit professional organization of scientists and other professionals in the life science sector, working in diverse organizations such as the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, instrumentation and scientific product suppliers, academia, government laboratories and contract research organizations. We are a member organization of Pharmaceutical & BioScience Society, International (PBSS), which has member organizations in the USA (San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, Boston) and Canada (Vancouver). Combined, PBSS covers the largest life science clusters in North America. And now we're expanding to the Pacific Rim.

Mission Statement:

The mission of Korea-PBSS is to promote the exchange of scientific ideas while providing educational and growth opportunities in the fields of pharmaceutical / life science related disciplines. We foster interactions and disseminate information through seminar luncheons, targeted workshops (short courses), expert forums, symposia, vendor shows, as well as career opportunity announcements.
