Our center was established in April 2016 within The University of Osaka’s Suita Campus to promote collaborative research with The University of Osaka. Since then, we have developed numerous cell manipulation products, including CellPet 3D-iPS and CellPet FT. Building on the achievements of industry–academia collaboration, we continue to advance the development of cell manipulation technologies and the creation of innovative products. Furthermore, as an open innovation hub, we actively pursue joint research not only with The University of Osaka but also with various institutions. If you have inquiries regarding automation technologies or devices related to cell manipulation, please feel free to contact us.

We are actively promoting initiatives to address critical societal challenges, including the development of novel regenerative therapies for diseases that currently lack effective cell-based treatments, the creation of automated systems to replace manual cell handling in response to a declining labor force, and research into innovative biotechnologies that contribute to solving global food and environmental issues. To this end, we are advancing proposals to expand the applications of the automated cell culture system “MakCell” and to enhance the performance of the 3D Rotational Floating Culture technology “CELLFLOAT.”
