Dr. Rae Woong Park is the Director and Professor of the Department of Biomedical Informatics at Ajou University School of Medicine, South Korea, and Chairman of board of directors of The Korean Society of Medical Informatics (KOSMI). He graduated Ajou University Medical School (1995) and received his Master of Science and Ph.D. (2006) in the department of pathology. He trained for surgical pathology at the Ajou University Hospital and is a board-certified surgical pathologist (2000). He had won almost 60 government research grants on medical informatics and has more than 160 publications in the medical informatics area. Dr. Park is an active international collaborator of OHDSI and now he in charge of of FEEDER-NET (Federated E-health Big Data for Evidence Renovation Network), a 3-year research project granted from Ministry of Trade Industry and Energy of South Korea. The total budget of the project is about 10M USD. Forty-one largest Korean hospitals joined the FEEDER-NET. The aims of FEEDER-NET include conversion of participating hospitals’ EHR data into CDM and development of a cloud-based open research platform that works on the CDM network.
