Mission & Vision


Our Mission

We aim to tackle the biggest problems in health and sustainability. We are focused on solving problems in new ways and enable their translation into technologies that change the world.


Our Vision

We will make the world a healthy and sustainable place for all its inhabitants by inventing and accelerating translation of innovative solutions that impact human and planetary health.  


Academic Entrepreneurs Rapidly Translating Innovation

We are academic entrepreneurs driven to develop innovative healthcare technologies and deliver them to patients. We pursue personalized solutions by translating cutting-edge academic research into practical applications.


Personalized Solutions Through Innovative Translation

Every person is unique, and effective disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention require precision and personalization. At the Terasaki Institute, we focus on turning data from omics, environment, and lifestyle into personalized healthcare solutions. Omics help us understand the root causes of disease, while data from individuals reveals how factors like genetics and environment affect treatment response and disease risk. We use these insights to engineer precise, personalized innovations—quickly tailoring solutions to each person’s unique biology and life circumstances.


How we do it

Our multidisciplinary teams work as part of a unique convergent ecosystem to translate scientific knowledge into real-world solutions. We focus on the problem first and work backwards towards the solution. Scientists, clinicians, and engineers collaborate to develop and derisk ground-breakingtechnologies, while our innovation team works to identify the best and quickest commercial strategy to quickly turn our ideas into impactful solutions.
