Overview

In this laboratory, we conduct research on a wide range of subjects with an aim to support and promote the health of people and local communities in cooperation with the government and companies.
Focusing on themes such as prevention of lifestyle-related diseases and community development aimed at extending healthy life expectancy, we are also conducting several extensive studies on fostering social capital and social health-related factors. Along with quick and flexible responses to changes with time, we conduct research to solve health-associated social issues. In addition, we aim to fill the gaps in social systems by connecting dots with a warm perspective and conduct interdisciplinary and highly creative research activities.
