The development of effective and non-invasive vaccine administration is a global aim. Among various vaccine administration methods, the transcutaneous administration using patches is of particular attractive because it reduces pains given by conventional administration using syringes and needles, and encourage patients’ compliance.
In our center, we develop a transcutaneous drug delivery system using cutting-edge technologies, and lead a comprehensive research about medical materials.
Our mission is to create an international research hub for investigating the transdermal drug delivery system, where researches areas from the surface chemistry area as well as material engineering and bioengineering are integrated to promote a fusion research.
