Professor Takayuki Asao continues his research on glycans and cancer, applies for patents at the university, develops medical and training devices, and continues to secure funding grants. At the same time, he deepens collaboration with local medical institutions and readily provides advice and support to young researchers regarding their research plans. This talent has created a new support system for medical and life science research at Gunma University, one of the few in the country. Currently, he is taking on the challenge of building a physiological data integration system to accelerate the development of implantable medical devices within a large consortium composed of Shinshu University, Tohoku University, Gunma University, and other institutions.
