Regulatory Science for Medical Device Development Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies the development of medical devices for brain diseases and the regulatory science that supports it.

AboutAbout the lab
Bringing new medical devices to society through regulatory science.
The Regulatory Science for Medical Device Development Lab studies "regulatory science," which, when research and development results are put to practical use, predicts, evaluates, and judges quality, efficacy, and safety appropriately and quickly on the basis of scientific knowledge.
Building on regulatory science, the lab aims to contribute to the development of new drugs and medical devices, to create an environment where people can learn about regulation, and to train specialists in this field.
Working with affiliated hospitals that have extensive clinical experience, the lab advances the real-world implementation of developed products based on regulatory science.
Key terms
