A lab that approaches the world's health challenges from a global health perspective.

AboutAbout the lab
Solving cross-border health challenges through cooperation.
Associate Professor Mami Wakabayashi specializes in global health and works on research, practical activities, and education.
When an infectious disease such as COVID-19 spreads across borders, it has a major impact on economies and on society as a whole.
Prof. Wakabayashi believes it will become increasingly important to solve health challenges rooted in disparities between and within countries through cooperation across borders and disciplines.
At the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation, Prof. Wakabayashi serves as a specially participating faculty member and teaches the special lecture "Introduction to Global Health" in the school's challenge-based courses.
