JOANNA BRIGSS INSTITUTE (JBI) COLLABORATING CENTER OF KOREA In 2007, Yonsei Evidence Based Nursing Center was designated as the sole JBI affiliation center in Korea. The center utilizes an organic cooperation system with JBI headquarters as the basis to produce, process, and distribute the best evidence related to the prevention and management of diseases and the promotion of health. The Center thus contributes to the enhancement of the quality of nursing, which in turn positively enhances patients’ quality of life by providing evidence-based medical/nursing environments.
BIO-BEHAVIORAL RESEARCH CENTER The Bio-behavioral Research Center was developed to promote bio-behavioral studies as a foundation for effective nursing interventions for health promotion and disease prevention. The Center supports the convergence of basic life science and socio-psychological interventions in nursing.
