First meeting to gear up for the next year's Korean MRI Conference

The meeting was held at a restaurant near the Seoul Train Station. Dr. Hong KS from KBSI did a good job presenting the results of this year's ICMRI & KSMRM annual meeting (which was held in March), and explaining current status of the organization committee. For me, new to the inner workings of the Korean MRI society, it is humbling to see the large efforts devoted by many busy professionals to grow the society at a rapid pace.
1. Imperatives: The society wants to grow more international. The ICMRI conference should attract more international registrants. In practice, this can be most readily achieved by fostering more resource exchange with Chinese and other Asian magnetic resonance communities.
2. Desirables: Expansion of mutual educational sessions between the PhD's and MD's. The former, including the PhD students, will benefit from more coherent medical case and practice reports, while the latter will appreciate better plain-language expositions of MR theories covered at the conference.

Kudos to the hands and brains of the KSMRM society!
