Research Areas

Through understanding the physical properties of substances, we develop analytical methods to investigate their effects on living organisms, as well as new molecules and materials that benefit human health.

Our study focuses on ‘chemistry’ which is the basis of pharmaceutical sciences, including chemical structure and chemical properties of medicines. We also conduct medicinal chemistry research based on the development of organic synthetic reactions and the exploration of natural resources.

Biological sciences explore the structure of genes and proteins, the basic units of the body. We also examine the structure and function of cells and organs, as well as the defense mechanisms against foreign substances. Through these studies, we understand the composition and function of the body.

We contribute to the maintenance and improvement of health, well-being through acquisition of fundamental knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to nutrition, health, food safety, disease prevention, detection and toxicity of chemical substances.

Researching how drugs act on living organisms at various levels: individuals, organs, cells, and molecules. We aim to advance drug treatment and drug discovery.

When administering pharmacotherapy, it is crucial to understand both the formulation of the drug before it enters the body and its fate within the body after administration. By conducting research from these perspectives, we aim to pursue more effective drug treatments.

Pharmacists need essential knowledge of diseases in order to apply their expertise in pharmaceuticals to patient care. The pharmacy students learn about the causes, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases, linking the effects of medications to these conditions, and acquiring valuable knowledge of drug therapy.

Students learn the skills and gain the expertise required to work as pharmacists in clinical settings. They also engage in research and other activities to analyze issues and problems in real-life clinical situations, and to seek ways for improvement.

We support first-year students to make a successful transition from high school to university, and to train interprofessional education for pharmaceutical science. Additionally, we conduct research that makes use of our respective expertise.
