About Us

Chemistry is a discipline that contributes to the creation of a prosperous future society by pursuing the principles of structure, function, and physical properties of matter and creating new materials. Chemistry is not limited to chemical phenomena that exist in nature. Various research is being conducted to design and synthesize chemical substances (molecules) with new functions that do not exist in nature. Nevertheless, only a small percentage of chemical phenomena important to life, such as chemical reactions in living organisms and the function of enzymes, have been elucidated.

Many research topics in chemistry are important and interesting to humans. By studying chemistry, we can always be involved in the microscopic world of electrons, atoms, and molecules, which can never be seen by the naked eye. Today, it is possible to theoretically predict the structure and properties of unknown molecules based on “quantum mechanical laws.” Modern chemistry is in the midst of a renaissance and is facing a time of significant change for the next generation.
