 ライフサイエンス研究所は近畿大学本部直轄の組織で、医学部からは独立した研究施設ですが、医学部の建物内にあり、機器備品およびほとんどの教員、技術員が医学部共同研究施設と共有、共同兼任の状態にあることから、医学部の研究にも寄与するところの大きな施設といえるでしょう。
 私立大学医学部や私立医科大学で基礎的な研究に専念する医学部出身者は元来多くありませんでしたが、新臨床研修医制度の導入で母校の医学部に残る卒業生自体が減少し、研究を志向する若い医師は非常に少なくなってきました。私どものライフサイエンス研究所も研究者不足、若い医師の研究志向の低下の影響をうけていると考えられます。
 しかし、時間も研究費も潤沢とはいえない中で、多くの質の高い研究成果が発表されたことは、誠に喜ばしいことと考えます。基礎系および臨床系の多くの教室の多大な御尽力と、研究所の技術員の奮闘に敬意を表するとともに、引き続いての御協力をお願いする次第です。
