Professor Kim Young-dae of the Department of Pediatrics at Ilsan Paik Hospital in Inje University was elected as the new president of the Korean Pediatric Immunology Society at the '2024 Board of Directors of the Fall Academic Conference of the Korean Pediatric Clinical Immunology Association'. The term of office is two years from January 2025.
Founded in 2006, the Korean Society of Pediatric Clinical Immunology is a society that studies autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases that appear in children, including congenital immunodeficiency diseases.
Rare and intractable diseases in childhood, such as rheumatoid diseases such as childhood idiopathic arthritis, lupus, and Bethett's disease, and congenital immune deficiency diseases such as hereditary recurrent fever syndrome, are the main subjects of the study.
`Although autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases that appear from an early age are both chronic and severe, they develop slowly and have poor information, making it difficult to diagnose and treat them,' Kim Young-dae, the new chairman, said. `While informing the public of these diseases in an easy-to-understand manner, we will make efforts to strengthen academic exchanges between members and educational capabilities, prepare guidelines for treatment related to diseases, and expand exchanges with related foreign societies.'
Professor Kim Young-dae graduated from Hanyang University School of Medicine and graduated from the same graduate school with master's and doctorate degrees in medicine. He is a specialist in the treatment of pediatric hematologic tumors and pediatric rheumatology disease and currently serves as the director of the Korean Rheumatology Society and the vice president of the Korean Pediatric Clinical Immunology Society.
