AboutAbout the lab
Industry, academia, and government studying drug discovery together
The Industry-Academia-Government Collaborative Drug Discovery Lab is a collaborative chair established in the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Kyushu University. Its research areas include radiopharmaceuticals, adverse drug reaction biomarkers, clinical pharmacology, sex-difference pharmacology, and the application of human iPS cells to drug discovery.
Professor Yoshiro Saito is listed with the National Institute of Health Sciences, Professor Susumu Nakade with Ono Pharmaceutical, and Professor Junko Kurokawa with the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Shizuoka.
Prof. Saito lists regulatory science and adverse drug reaction biomarkers as his research themes. Prof. Nakade lists clinical pharmacology in new drug development. Prof. Kurokawa lists sex-difference pharmacology in the cardiovascular field and the application of human iPS cells to drug discovery.
Key terms
- Regulatory science
- The science of evaluating whether drugs and other products are effective and safe, so that the results can inform approval and regulatory decisions
- Biomarker
- A substance in the body that serves as an indicator of a person's condition, of how well a drug works, or of how likely side effects are
- iPS cells
- Cells made from body cells such as skin cells that can turn into many different types of cells
ResearchResearch themes
In the Industry-Academia-Government Collaborative Drug Discovery Lab, the professors each carry out research on drug development and adverse drug reactions in their own fields. The listed research areas are regulatory science research to promote the development of radiopharmaceuticals, research on the discovery and validation of adverse drug reaction biomarkers and their use by regulatory authorities, clinical pharmacology research in new drug development, the development of sex-difference pharmacology in the cardiovascular field, and the application of human iPS cells to drug discovery.
