GCOE program accomplished



Successful completion of the GCOE program and its successor institution

The University of Shizuoka Global COE Program "Global Center of Excellence for Innovation in Human Health Science" was completed on schedule in March, 2012. The Global COE program has developed a novel research field--human health sciences--by facilitating fruitful research collaboration between the food and nutritional sciences and the pharmaceutical sciences. New PhD program in the health and longevity science has also been provided by the program, resulting that a number of promising experts who devote themselves to the progressing research field have been nurtured.
