Program Description
The RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences was established in 2013 with the aims of creating innovative medical science and contributing to the future of human health. To accomplish these goals, IMS applies interdisciplinary approaches to create a new research area of integrative medical sciences, which includes genome-wide medical science, immunology and physiology, bioinformatics, and molecular, biochemical and quantitative sciences.
In April 2018, we launched a new internship grant program to host young distinguished international scientists who carry out research activities in IMS laboratories. This program was suspended in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we resumed from April 2024.
