Strategy and Public Relations Office

This office was established in July 2021 to centralize strategic planning and public relations at the Organization for the Institute for Advancement of Clinical and Translational Science (iACT). In our public relations activities, we not only communicate the results of clinical research at Kyoto University Hospital to the general public and patients through our website and PR magazines but also try to communicate, in an easy-to-understand manner, why clinical research is necessary, how clinical research leads to the development of new medical care, and how we can contribute to society by allowing everyone to participate in clinical research safely and securely. We also issue news releases, respond to the media, and handle interviews in cooperation with the Hospital Public Relations Department and the University Public Relations Department.
At the same time, in addition to disseminating research results to companies, we also support matching events with university researchers in cooperation with the Medical Development Department of the same institute to promote researchers' latest findings and link them to the development of new drugs and medical devices.
