Taking on Advanced Research in the Fields of Food Health Science, Regenerative Medicine, and IoT Promotion / AI Utilization

At our laboratory for advanced research, we aim to be a company that comprehensively supports health enhancement. We engage in basic research into things like evaluating the unexplained functionality foods contain and elucidating their mechanisms, and we’re performing applied research backing the efficacy of consumption of certain foods. Additionally, we’re engaging in industry-academia-government collaboration for advanced medical research into disease prevention and for the research and development of the new systems needed to further increase the quality and productivity of our manufacturing business.
