Institute for Medical Research
-Excellence through Research-

Institute for Medical Research (IMR) is a compactly built and creative research unit for the invention of New Chemical Entities(NCE). We are focusing on the discovery of unique small molecules drug candidates through the optimization for the chemical structure of original lead compounds. IMR is highly efficient science team that had successfully out-licensed novel NCE candidates since its establishment on late 80’s.
IMR has also been actively working on collaborative researches with major pharmaceutical firms for the lead optimization project. Our organization enables this research unit to provide the best collaboration framework for success in terms of research target, size of staff, consideration, and role-sharing.
