-Reserch-
We are conducting research in three areas.
sustainable society
Renewable energy sources such as sunlight are essential to building a sustainable future. Research into renewable energy is becoming increasingly important in modern society, which aims to balance environmental protection and economic development.
engineering and medicine
Electrical and electronic systems are used to acquire and analyze biological information, as well as to develop therapeutic devices. In medical and bioengineering research, new methods and systems are being developed every day to further advance technology, contributing to improving the quality of medical care.
Solving modern energy problems
Research on smart energy solutions is expected to reduce the environmental burden and solve specific problems toward the realization of a sustainable society, such as the efficient use of renewable energy.
