Project Story
The world's only* jellyfish protection cream invented by students.
Jelly’s Guard is a cream co-developed with students who discovered the mechanism of venomous stingers. Initially, global researchers tried to identify jellyfish toxins, but they remained unsolved.
In developing the jellyfish prevention cream, we studied global research and focused on inhibiting the nematocyst's stinger firing. This led us to Team Nemo, a group of students at Ehime Nagahama High School, conducting cutting-edge research.
Their achievements have been recognized with awards like global science competitions and the Prime Minister’s Award.
*The Aquarium Club of Nagahama High School in Ehime Prefecture has become the first in the world to unravel the mechanism of jellyfish nematocyst discharge.
