# Korea University (고려대학교)

A private research university in Seoul whose College of Medicine and Anatomy School appear as the academic affiliation on some Korean regenerative-medicine publications.

## Overview

Korea University (고려대학교) is a private research university in Seoul, founded in 1905. Its College of Medicine runs the anatomy, histology and cell-biology departments that Korean plastic-surgery and regenerative-medicine papers frequently list as a secondary affiliation when laboratory work supports a clinical series.

An academic affiliation printed in an indexed paper is a specific, checkable statement: the named institution is credited on that publication. It is not a statement that the institution endorses the clinical practice, supervises it, or has reviewed the claims a clinic makes in its marketing. worldwiki records the affiliation as it is printed in the source and draws no further inference from it.
