Ito Laboratory conducts research in the field of Operations Research (OR). OR is a scientific technique to support optimal decision making.

To date, it has developed mainly in the industrial world in Europe and the United States. Japan lags behind Europe and the U.S., especially in the field of healthcare.

Our laboratory conducts joint research with medical institutions, medical device manufacturers, and local and national governments to conduct new research in fields where it has not been applicable so far.

Through mathematical modeling, we solve various problems. To this end, we incorporate social and international perspectives and aim to spread OR into society. We are always working on new things to realize a sustainable and better future.
