OTRI has a proven track record as a research hub that connects basic research to new therapies and other applications. In the future, OTRI will aggregate diverse information from medical and pharmaceutical scientific researches and promote cross-disciplinary collaboration. We will also focus on cutting-edge research that transcends the world's most advanced fields, comprehensively capturing all life phenomena to create new knowledge and promote industry-academia collaboration.

OTRI strengthens collaboration based on fundamental research in photonics and spintronics to discover new science and its applications. OTRI aims to be an internationally recognized academic research hub that promotes collaborative research and helps build the technological foundations for next-generation medical and pharmaceutical advancements, from development to implementation in society.

OTRI connects diverse a variety of data and researchers from our university organically and across departments, from catalysis science that opens the way to safer, tastier, and more sustainable food, to digital transformation (DX) applications that will change the society. OTRI aims to realize strengthened research capabilities in various fields, which will give birth to innovative research, develop next-generation technology, and create new industries.

OTRI aims to advance research on themes such as "New Prevention of Disaster" which places a high value on human life, based on our history, and "A Symbiotic Society Where Humans and Robots Coexist," for the upcoming "Super Smart Society" (Society 5.0). By resolving various social issues with diversity, OTRI proactively collaborates to co-create a future symbiotic society.
