How We Do It

We promote researches that researchers aim at cross-sectoral fusion of a wider range of academic disciplines by actively exchanging and collaborating with researchers in other fields, working mainly on their core research fields.
To support them, we established a Managing & Planning Section to promote mutual understanding and cooperation within and outside the six research areas, further to support human exchange and collaborative research, etc. with other faculties, schools, etc. in Tohoku University and other universities.
