研究室紹介
Professor Jeong-Yeol Kim's research lab specializes in infectious disease surveillance and diagnostic pathology, with a focus on improving public health responses to emerging infectious diseases and enhancing diagnostic accuracy in breast pathology. The lab develops and evaluates provincial-level surveillance systems for acute febrile illnesses, as demonstrated by the GAFINet initiative following the MERS-CoV outbreak in South Korea. It also investigates interobserver variability in diagnosing papillary breast lesions using core needle biopsy, aiming to standardize pathology reporting and improve clinical outcomes. The lab integrates clinical epidemiology, pathology, and health information systems to strengthen disease detection and diagnostic reliability.

4Objective: The objectives are to introduce a provincial level surveillance system, which has been initiated in response to the MERS-CoV outbreak of South Korea, and describe findings from systematic investigation of individual admissions attributed to acute febrile illness for the first year.Introduction: In May 2015, the MERS-CoV outbreaks in South Korea was sparkled from a hospital of Gyeonggi-do province (1). In response to this outbreak, the provincial government and infectious disease contr
Background: Papillary breast lesions (PBLs) comprise diverse entities from benign and atypical lesions to malignant tumors. Although PBLs are characterized by a papillary growth pattern, it is challenging to achieve high diagnostic accuracy and reproducibility. Thus, we investigated the diagnostic reproducibility of PBLs in core needle biopsy (CNB) specimens with World Health Organization (WHO) classification.Methods: Diagnostic reproducibility was assessed using interobserver variability (kappa
