    • Department of Public Relations and Planning

    The mission of the Department of Public Relations and Planning is to administrate the systems and environment of this huge Tohoku Medical Megabank Project. By planning a number of kinds of social activities, we would like to communicate and collaborate with the society to develop the project together. We will also make our data and information accessible globally so that they can be widely used and facilitate more advanced research outcomes. We set up a work structure to help every aspect of the project proceed smoothly.
