DEPARTMENT
The Heart of our Research Center.
The CXI headquarters department is not only the engine but also the compass of the entire CXI TUL. This is where strategic direction is decided, visions are created, and conditions are established to ensure that research and cooperation with partners run smoothly and efficiently. This allows the research departments to focus on science and innovation for the future, while we create a solid foundation and ensure smooth operations. We manage not only the running of the institute, but also its future direction. We ensure that CXI TUL is an active player in the world of science, innovation, and international cooperation.
Research Department
The Research Department handles matters related to CXI’s scientific and research activities. Its activities focus primarily on preparing documents related to strategy and the development of science, research, and development at CXI.
