Medical Data Management Support Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that builds systems for using medical data safely and supports research.

AboutAbout the lab
Building the foundation for making use of medical data.
The lab is a division of the Medical DX Education and Research Center, affiliated with the Graduate School of Medicine, and its mission is "building a role model for a medical data utilization infrastructure in Japan."
Beyond providing facilities, the lab expands horizontal connections among people across the university, aiming to create a place where high-quality research on par with the world's best can emerge.
Its work rests on three pillars: advanced use of external data and support for industry-academia collaboration; open science and research data management; and operating an infrastructure for uses that benefit the health and interests of the public.
The lab promotes interdisciplinary research that goes beyond medicine, and trains medical information professionals with strong foundational skills, applied skills, and communication skills.
Key terms
- Real-world data
- Medical data routinely collected from hospital medical records, health checkups, insurance claims, and similar sources
- Open science
