Overview

Our mission is to research and develop the technology of a drug candidate discovery and the molecular design by the techniques of the computational simulation. We are developing the novel platform, as a funded research, that simulates the molecular design such as a protein structure. We have two research teams, one is the molecular design team and the other is the experimental development team. Both teams are collaborating through the project. Our solution is based on not only the computational based simulation but also the experimental facts. Recently, we are working on National project, awarded a NEDO grant, on developing the techniques relates to an RNA Aptamer.
