｜Message from the President
Our mission is “to keep people healthy in space and to develop terrestrial medicine by utilizing space technology and research.”
Many people know that the space industry is expected to be a new growth industry for Japan, and various companies are trying to enter this field.
How will the field of “medical care” create new value in the future?
One is medical care for the general public when they fly and stay in space in the future.
Aerospace medical knowledge will be necessary not only for healthy astronauts, but also for the elderly, children, and people with illnesses or handicaps in order for them to safely travel to space.
We have many physicians with experience in this field, and we believe that they can make expert judgments.
The other is life science research that takes advantage of the microgravity environment of space. Significant scientific achievements have been made in the fields of drug discovery, regenerative medicine, and aging medicine, which will directly lead to the health of people living on the ground.
In addition, medical care derived from space technology, such as the use of satellite data to predict diseases affected by air pollution and rising temperatures and the application of telemedicine technology to areas with low medical population, are expected to greatly advance medical care on the ground.
The Space Medical Accelerator is a space-based medical accelerator that will provide new medical treatment from space to all people.
Space Medical Accelerator will do its best to develop space medicine as an industry.
