Fujita Health University has been selected for the Program for Forming Japan’s Peak Research Universities (J-PEAKS). Through this program, we will deepen the relationship with our collaborators－Hamamatsu University School of Medicine, the National Institute for Physiological Sciences, Gifu Pharmaceutical University－as well as with other J-PEAKS universities, pharmaceutical companies, and private companies, to promote the seamless integration of research and social implementation, integrating data science and comprehensive knowledge.  

 

Our J-PEAKS activities are centered at the Fujita Mind-Brain Research & Innovation Center for Drug Generation (Fujita Mind-BRIDGe). This world-class research hub addresses psychiatric and neurological disorders－from genomics, molecules, cells, neural circuits, cognition and behavior, clinical research, drug discovery, and mental health care－all under one roof.  

 

To commemorate the establishment of Fujita Mind-BRIDGe, we are pleased to announce the International Symposium 2025, to be held at the Nagoya Marriott Associa Hotel on Sunday, November 23, 2025.  

 

The symposium’s theme, "The Dawn of a New Era in Academic Drug Discovery", will bring together leading researchers from Japan and around the world who are at the forefront of brain science.
