We first began working with iPS cells in 2019.

We thought our equipment would be of help to those producing iPS cells, so we started a joint research project with the CiRA Foundation.

At the time, we had to look up iPS cells in an electronic dictionary to understand the abbreviation, but to our surprise, it was not listed in the 2018 revised Kojien.

As one of the symbols of such a new era, iPS cells are still not well known to most people, but we hope that in the near future they will be used as a matter of course for diseases and injuries for which there is currently no cure.

We are conducting iPS cell research and developing sterilization technologies for medical use.

Through this work, we hope to contribute to the development of new medicines.

Although we are not specialists in cells or medicine, we are hoping to communicate work related toiPS cells to junior high and high school students in an easy-to-understand way.

By the way, the statue in the picture is the one of E.H. Hunter, the founder of our company.
