Welcome to the Department of Biomedical Analytics

The Department of Biomedical Analytics was established through the renaming of the former Department of Public Health.

For more than 60 years, the former Department of Public Health engaged in medical education, academic research, and community-oriented activities related to disease prevention and health promotion. Public health is an applied science concerned with preventing disease, promoting health, and prolonging life at both the individual and population levels. Over the years, the department addressed a wide range of health issues across the life course through collaboration with professionals and organizations in the fields of healthcare, welfare and health policy.

Its educational and research activities have included such areas as long-term care for older adults, lifestyle-related diseases, maternal and child health, mental health, and epidemiological studies, including work related to post-disaster recovery.

Details of the department’s education and research activities will be updated and posted on this website as they are confirmed.
