Laboratory for Future Interdisciplinary Research of Science and Technology, Tokyo Institute of Technology has signed the comprehensive cooperation agreement on medical and dental engineering and technology with the Graduate School of Dentistry, Tohoku University since July 5, 2016. The purpose of this agreement is to promote collaboration researches on medical and dental engineering and to develop human resources through the collaboration research, thereby to achieve the significant and rapid development of medical and dental engineering and technology. In order to accelerate the collaboration, Prof. Keiichi Sasaki, currently Vice President of Tohoku University, has suggested the Innovative Dental-Engineering Alliance (IDEA). In this activity, we have been actively engaged in mutual research exchanges and joint research, and we have visited each other once or twice a year to deepen the collaboration.
In order to further develop this agreement, the Innovative Dental-Engineering Alliance (IDEA) Core has been established on April 1, 2023, and five faculty members from Graduate School of Dentistry, Tohoku University have joined the core as visiting professors.
