13 The 21st Century COE Program

The 21st Century COE Program
Since its foundation in 1858, Keio University has been at the forefront of education and research in Japan. For 146
years, Keio has consistently fulfilled its mission to contribute back to society through its academic and researchachievements in fields such as industry and medicine. Keio has also made substantial contributions through fostering
the leaders of society and creating new areas of knowledge.
Keio University continues to be a driving force in creating the future of Japan and the global community.
The university’s application to participate in the 21st Century COE Program for FY2002 and FY2003 is an opportunity to advance its fundamental mission through two main focuses: neutrality and a firm commitment to society. The
21st Century COE Program opens up new possibilities to focus upon the creation of significant intellectual values andhuman resource development, while remaining impartial and unaffected by the short-term trends of society. Keio
University will reinforce its commitment to society by actively contributing to discussions of current social issues.
Keio University aims to become a leader in the global society of the 21st Century through the creation of dynamic
development and integration of these two focus points at an international level, based upon a unique elliptical model.

Integrative Mathematical Sciences: Progress inMathematics Motivated by Natural and Social Phenomena

Designing toward the Ordering of Political Society in a
Multi-cultural and Pluri-generational World■Program Leader■Program Leader

Yoshiaki Maeda

Yoshiaki Kobayashi(Graduate School of Science and Technology, Professor)(Graduate School of Law, Professor)

The Integrative Mathematical Sciences program is designed toopen up new horizons in mathematics by bridging the gaps
between pure mathematics and application-oriented mathematics, and to investigate new concepts and leadership methods for mathematical sciences. The core of the research andeducational program is built on pure mathematics, as supported by data science and experimental mathematics. Data science serves as the interface to various data-intensive phenomena, and experimental mathematics supports the experimental
aspect of mathematical sciences.
The main objective of our program is to promote the construction of international educational and research centersthrough integrating these three aspects of mathematical sciences. To facilitate our efforts further, the Center for Integrative
Mathematical Sciences at Keio will be established under the
auspices of the President at the earliest possible opportunity.
As well as our research projects, we have a strong mandate
to encourage Ph.D. students and young researchers internationally. For this purpose, we have already started weekly interdisciplinary seminars and colloquia to enhance interdisciplinary exchanges.
Another important aspect of our COE programs is domestic
and international collaborations in mathematical sciences witheducational and research institutions overseas. We also invite
researchers to give lecture series for graduate students, both toinform the students of progress in recent important problems
in mathematics, and to encourage research collaborations with
the COE program. We also plan to organize an international
workshop each year.

With the globalization that has been progressing in recent
years, clashes in the area of multiculturalism have made themselves apparent in many states and societies. On the consideration that these problems cannot be resolved at the level ofpolitical leadership alone; the program proposed will establish
mechanisms to clarify the ways citizens’ attitudes is promoted,
developed and changed, and to consider the direction in which
multicultural communities are moving.
The eventual aim is to establish a “multi-cultural citizen’s
attitudes research center” and to establish an enlarged “citizens’ attitudes data archive”, targeted at a variety of countries.
Together they will constitute Japan’s first internationally-oriented human research network. Research plans: to increase
data and related analyses regarding citizens’ attitudes in a multicultural world; establishing the causes of conflicts, while carrying on investigation into condititions that will make it harderfor such conflicts to arise. Research will be undertaken into theoutlook for political society in the twenty-first century: the differences in attitudes of political society within multiculturalismin particular comparison between the generation responsible
for contemporary society and the generation who will bear that
responsibility in the future. Education-related plans: providing
research funds for younger researchers on a competitive basis,
as well as organising graduate students to participate in surveys relating to the main area of proposed research, giving
instruction on the implementation of citizens’ attitudes surveys
and related analyses. Moreover, in order to make known the
results of research undertaken in foreign languages, along withthe publication of a foreign-language review, it is proposed tosubsidize travel expenses for those presenting at international
conferences.
Through these research and educational approaches, we aim
to establish a program of global research and education, notonly carrying out opinion surveys into citizens’ attitudes, buteffecting research and education of the highest international
standard into the topic of global civil governance.

■Medical Sciences-A
Basic study and clinical application of human stem cellbiology and immunology: Approaches based on thedevelopment of experimental animal models■Program Leader
Hideyuki Okano(Graduate School of Medicine, Professor)

The Keio University Graduate School of Medicine boasts an
excellent staff in two academic fields: (1) stem cell biology andregenerative medicine, and (2) immunology and autoimmune
disease research using animal models of human diseases. The
COE takes maximum advantage of the traditional joint researchsystem approaches based on the development of experimental
animal models since the founding of the school, and while
ensuring ethicality and safety based on the achievements ofbasic medicine, the basic and clinical staffs collaborate inendeavoring to elucidate the pathophysiology of incurable diseases and to develop new treatment methods. It will form a“self-renewing” educational center that will foster and turn out
many researchers with a broad perspective. The COE will becharacterized by I) incorporation of basic biology, taking advantage of Drosophila genetics, into the medical area, II) development of in vivo experimental medicine using human cells andoriginal animal models of human disease, and III) applicationof the results by the university hospital that possesses state-ofthe-art clinical capabilities. It will also establish an evaluation
system that will enable the maintenance of high-level studies
by introducing research projects at the Research Park.

Development of a Theory of Market Quality and an
Empirical Analysis Using Panel Data

System Design : Paradigm Shift fromIntelligence to Life

■Program Leader■Program Leader

Naoyuki YoshinoKazuo Yoshida(Graduate School of Economics, Professor)(Graduate School of Science and Technology, Professor)

Since the early 1990s, the Japanese economy has been in along recession. Our 21st century center of excellence programis premised on the belief that the fundamental cause of thislong lasting recession is the lack of high quality markets within
the Japanese economy. We believe that improving the qualityof Japanese markets is the key to revitalizing the economy.
Motivated by this belief, our program aims to reveal the determinants of market quality by combining theoretical and empirical analyses with a broad range of historical and institutionalcase studies.
On the one hand, the importance of "quality" has beenemphasized in various facets of managerial sciences. On theother hand, issues related to quality have not been fully examined in economics, perhaps due to difficulties associated withquantifying a "quality." In particular, market quality has neverbeen presented as a subject for serious economic analysis.
Gathering leading economists and managerial scientists at
Keio University, our program intends to shed light on this new
research subject and hopes to develop a new school of thought
guiding economic policymaking.
In order to conduct sound quantitative analyses of market
quality, high quality data is indispensable. In order to build
such data, in our program, we design and build longitudinal
panel data; longitudinal panel data tracks, for a large numberof economic agents, activities of each agent over a long spanof time. Unfortunately in Japan, unlike in the U.S. and Europe,
the accumulation of longitudinal data, in particular on consumption, remains poor. We are determined to make continuous and long lasting efforts to become a leading center of longitudinal panel data in Japan.
Data that we can confirm to be reliable will be made usablefor public. We are certain that these data will greatly contribute not only to understanding market quality but also toresearch in various fields of social science beyond our research
theme.

This COE aims at establishing a global collaborative and educational research center of excellence based on the systemdesign engineering which was initiated by KEIO University. In
this COE, an important role will be played in the mechanicaland architectural fields of engineering by leading in the 21st
century the paradigm shift to life for the engineering developed
historically from high-performance technology to intelligence
technology in the 20th century. In order to create harmony inthe world of the natural entities and artifact-systems interacting
each other, this COE focuses on the characteristics of life as asystem as well as various life functions and creates a new
design methodology of mechanical and architectural systems
which are enabled to be interactive among inner components
and outer systems by embedding design information including
rules of interaction into artifact-systems.
In order to achieve the objective of this COE, the systemdesign engineering will be further developed as a backbone of
the COE and several product innovations with respect to architecture, robotics, energy/bio systems and so on will be
explored. This COE program will provide graduate school students and young researchers a good opportunity to challenge
research through unique educational programs such as overseas internship and curriculum of leading-edge design school.

■Social Sciences-C
Policy Innovation Initiative■Program Leader
Moriyuki Oe(Graduate School of Media and Governance, Professor)

The purpose of this program is to establish a network of
research and training organizations in Japan and Asia. This
network will enable researchers and practitioners to cooperate
in finding the “problems” in need of solutions, in identifying
and developing the resources to be mobilized for the solutions,and in generating consensus in the methods of solving the
problems. We also aim at realigning existing methods ofinquiry in a manner conducive to finding and solving the“problems” attendant upon the rapidly increasing pressures ofglobalization, demographic change, and environmental
change. Our purpose is to develop a new mode of analysis andpractice for effective policy formation and to form a new policy
innovation “community” where scientific and practical knowledge can be joined.
As enunciated in the 1994 Human Development Report of theUNDP, “freedom from fear and freedom from want” represent
the essence of human security. We join in this formation of policy imperatives. The specific issues requiring innovative policies for promoting “human security” are diverse. Common to
all these issues are the threats and the unmistakable conditionof insecurity each poses to the individuals, to the communities,
and to the regions involved, regardless of their stages of economic development.

■Medical Sciences-B
Establishment of individualized cancer therapy basedon comprehensive development of minimally invasive
and innovative therapeutic methods■Program Leader
Masaki Kitajima(Graduate School of Medicine, Professor)

In this COE program, we will attempt to establish individualized
cancer therapies based on the comprehensive development ofminimally invasive and innovative therapeutic methods
through translational research. Research will be conducted inthree main areas: 1) development of diagnostic methods
enabling individualized treatment, including genetic diagnosis
and new RI imaging; 2) development of minimally invasive
treatments, including endoscopic and robotic surgery; and 3)
development of new cancer treatments, including immunotherapy, gene therapy and molecular target therapy. This research
will be mainly performed at the Keio University Center for
Integrated Medical Research, which has several new researchfacilities like the Laboratory Animals Center, RI Center andCentral Research Laboratory, as well as at Keio University
Hospital. To conduct this program efficiently, strong collaboration between the basic and clinical departments of the Keio
University Graduate School of Medicine and the Graduate
School of Science and Technology as well as between Keio
University and outside academia and industry will be required.
The center’s Shinanomachi Research Park will provide research
space for collaborations. Updated cancer research information
on basic and clinical topics will be made available to graduate
students, young researchers and medical doctors to enhancetheir research capabilities. International symposia and worldwide teleconferences will help to provide a global perspectiveon learning. Through these efforts, we will attempt to establish
a world renowned cancer center that can quickly translate basic
research into clinical applications while training the next-generation of researchers and medical doctors needed for the futureadvancement of cancer medicine.

17 Technology Licensing and Support of Venture Businesses

Technology Licensing and Support of Venture Businesses
Research results produced at Keio University are valued intellectual assets, and the university actively promotes andsupports the protection and utilization of them. The Intellectual Property Center was established in November 1998 as aTechnology Licensing Organization (TLO). Naturally, research conducted by individual scholars and staff at Keio has
resulted in contributions to society, reflecting the "spirit of practical learning" as Yukichi Fukuzawa, the university’sfounder advocated, but in order to further strengthen ties and cooperation between the university and society, Keio
University has become a rights holder to protect the intellectual assets, promote implementation of the research results tobusiness and to support and expand operations.

2. Patent Applications
Types of intellectual assets are diverse including inventions, programs
and creations, but can generally be categorized into two types, the"patent type" and the "non-patent type." The Intellectual Property Center
supports licensing of both types, but has given high priority to the intellectual property for the "patent type" for which the acquisition of rights
is necessary for licensing. A total of over 396 patent applications havebeen filed (318 in Japan, 78 overseas) since the center’s establishment.
The Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Science and Technology havebeen particularly active in patent application in the fields of bio andmedical technologies, with bio/medical making up 50 percent of thetotal, information/communication/electronics and control/measurement

each making up 20 percent, and materials/chemicals making up 10
percent.
One of the characteristics of FY2002 was the increase in joint patentapplications with foundations and private enterprises. Joint applications
only made up 20 to 30 percent in the past for Shinanomachi Campus,
but this figure jumped up to 43 percent in FY2002, indicating that
research at the Faculty of Science and Technology in collaboration of
KLL (Keio Leading-edge Laboratory of Science and Technology) andShinanomachi Research Park in the Faculty of Medicine have begun tobear fruit. 18 patents had been obtained as the university continues toapply for evaluation of licensed items as of fiscal FY2002.

4. Support of Venture Companies
Framework for Support of Venture Companies
The following frameworks are laid out in order to find and growthe university’s seeds, create new businesses, and stimulate
further research activities.
(1) Keio Venture Forum
This forum aims at introducing Keio’s seeds to industry, while also
providing advice and support for establishing venture businesses.
The forum provides services to companies, such as venture capitalists, trading companies and incubators, which have made cooperative agreements with Keio University. The university actively
creates an external network through the venture forum.
(2) Entrepreneur Assistance Fund(effective as of November 1, 2003)
Keio University has recently created an investment fund of up to
one million yen, or equivalent to 30 percent or less of the total
capital of a research and development-based venture company byutilizing intellectual property for which Keio University holds therights, in order to facilitate start-ups of such new businesses. The
fund can be made available to any venture company satisfying thefollowing four requirements.
(a) The company must be a limited company or a stock corporation.
(b) The company’s primary business must be research anddevelopment based on intellectual property held by Keio
University.
(c) The intellectual property used must have been produced as aresult of research by the university’s tenured staff or full-timestudent, and the inventor (staff or student) must invest an
appropriate amount of money and participate in the businessas one of the founders.
(d) The inventor must not only invest in the business but also be
involved in research or development of the company.
The Operating Committee for the Entrepreneur AssistanceFund makes a final decision on each investment possibility
upon recommendation from the Intellectual Property Center.
(3) Licensing to Venture Companies Originating from
Keio University
This is a scheme that takes into consideration the financial circumstances faced by venture companies, and accepts licensing fees
through equity such as stock and stock options in lieu of cash.
