Our Mission
We are dedicated to advancing cancer research by identifying patient subgroups with poor prognosis and exploring targeted therapeutic strategies. Our work begins with bioinformatics predictions, which we validate through laboratory studies using cancer cell lines and clinical samples. Though our research is foundational, we strive to make contributions that extend patient survival and quality of life. 。
Integrated Medical and Scientific Services
At
Shirokane Sanko Clinic, clinical care and research are seamlessly integrated.
We believe that providing cutting-edge medical services requires staying at the
forefront of scientific knowledge — and that science, in turn, is most
meaningful when it directly serves patients. Our clinicians are active
researchers, and our research team is grounded in medical realities. This
synergy
strengthens
both sides of our mission.
A Place Where Passion Meets Science – For All Ages
We
believe that curiosity and creativity are just as valuable as deep expertise.
Scientific research today is highly interdisciplinary. For example,
protein–protein interactions are studied using signal transmission models, and
fields like physics and computer science are essential in analyzing protein
structures.
These approaches show that impactful research often
arises from broad, open-minded thinking. We welcome motivated high school and
graduate students to join us.
With
guidance, even young students can make meaningful scientific contributions.
Sustainability and Access
Our
policy is grounded in the belief that both healthcare and research should be
accessible, ethical, and sustainable. We do not accept government funding
because it often comes with political constraints that may compromise
scientific independence. Instead, we rely on the clinical revenue from our
medical services and private donations.
All of our student programs are offered free of
charge to encourage equitable access to science education. We strive to make a
difference — not by profit, but by dedication to progress and
people.
Your support helps us maintain this freedom and continue training the next
generation of
researchers.
