LGLS opens medical sites for doctors

LG Life Sciences (LGLS) has recently launched a doctor-oriented continuous medical education site.

According to the company, the site, named “Hello Doctor,” will provide a variety of programs, including local medical news and articles, medical information, up-to-date theses and multimedia data.

In addition, unlike other medical sites, it offers the function of a live seminar, which enables doctors to join in online symposiums or video conferences.

“Via the Hello Doctor site, we will provide quality medical information and differentiated services with updates on a regular basis to lead the site to be arguably the best continuous medial education site.

LGLS was spun off from LG Chem Investment in August 2002.

The company, headed by CEO Kim In-chul, has been involved in pharmaceuticals and dates back to 1981, when it began genetic engineering research.

Since then, LGLS has focused on the development of synthetic and bioengineered drugs.
