Health Visualization

We are advancing research and development of visualization technologies that enable the non-invasive and minimally invasive measurement and analysis of biological information, supporting early disease detection and assessment of health status. By integrating diverse technologies such as biosensing, bioimaging, and motor-function assessment, we aim to build a foundation for next-generation healthcare.

Prevention And Health Promotion

We are promoting research and development of technologies that support health maintenance, prevention of disease progression, and self-care in response to health risks associated with lifestyle habits and aging. Through data utilization and remote monitoring technologies, we aim to realize personalized health support tailored to each individual.

Medical Intervention

We are promoting research and development of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, high-performance medical materials, and advanced medical devices. We are also working toward social implementation and practical application of research outcomes through regulatory science and medical-engineering collaboration.
