    Message for researchers<\/h3>\n

    \n Through communication with researchers, I hope to provide support that will allow us to offer hints and insights for advancing research.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    What inspired me to become a research administrator (URA)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    For many years, as a corporate researcher, I have planned and implemented many joint research projects with universities, and have been involved in formulating innovation and technology strategies by supporting managers and with technology management recommendations. When I was thinking about how I could use these experiences to make a broader contribution to society, I learned about the work of URA and decided that I would like to reconsider the relationship between science and technology and society through supporting researchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
