Supporting the brain development of the next generation

The rapid advancement of technology has led humanity to live in an environment where real and virtual spaces merge. However, how this drastic environmental change affects human beings, especially during the sensitive developmental period of childhood, has not been thoroughly studied. In the future, childcare and education will face the critical task of nurturing not only intelligence, but also intellect, which includes curiosity, inquisitiveness, motivation, emotion, and joy ̶ the core aspects of humanity. The foundation for lifelong physical and mental health is formed during childhood. Advancing human sciences, our goal is to promote innovations that support the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of the next generation.
