In August 2025, the Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer (IDAC) at Tohoku University signed a department-level academic exchange agreement with the Department of Neurobiology, Care Sciences and Society (NVS) at Karolinska Institutet (KI), Sweden.

This agreement builds upon years of academic interaction between the two institutions. The 2nd Joint Symposium, held on June 2–3, 2025, propelled the formalization of this agreement.

By establishing this formal framework, IDAC strengthens its role as an international research hub and enhances its partnership with Karolinska Institutet. This agreement marks a milestone in the deepening academic ties between the two institutions and is expected to promote further joint research initiatives and active exchanges of students and researchers.
