Coordinator: Yutaka Matuyama Navigator: Koji Oba Medicine is advancing every day. New medical treatments and products are delivered to us through the findings of medical research involving human subjects. Medical research covers a diversity of areas, from researches using genomic information, to clinical trials for the approval of investigating new drugs, to post-marketing researches for accumulating clinical evidence of medical treatments and products, to pharmaco-epidemiological studies on adverse effects which are hard to detect during development processes, and to economic evaluation of healthcare. Therefore, medical research involves not only the experts from medicine, but also from various other fields, such as pharmaceutical sciences, biology, engineering, economics, and statistics. On the other hand, what is common to all types of research is collecting and analysing of clinical data in a planned manner and decision-making based on such data. A new type of methodology in scientific research, called ‘data science’, has been drawing attention in recent years. It could be said that the field of healthcare has been practicing data science since its early days. In this course consisting of a series of lectures, we will paint a broad picture of the entire process until medical treatments and products are delivered to people in society. In addition, we will listen to the stories of those who are actually involved in research, so that we can consider the contributions of various academic disciplines which support a healthy society.
