It has come to our attention that news articles and other content concerning certain motion sickness applications and related products developed by particular companies (hereinafter referred to as “the Apps, etc.”) have been appearing across multiple media outlets, websites, and social media platforms.
Some of these articles and posts contain language that, in citing Nagoya University’s name and the research publications of its researchers, may create the misleading impression that Nagoya University and its researchers were involved in the development of the Apps, etc. We wish to state clearly that Nagoya University and its researchers have had no involvement whatsoever in the development, manufacture, or sale of the Apps, etc.
Furthermore, the research conducted by Nagoya University researchers on the alleviation of motion sickness represents foundational findings obtained under specific experimental conditions. Nagoya University and its researchers do not evaluate or endorse the efficacy or safety of the Apps, etc. as commercialized products. We ask that the public take note of this distinction.
