AboutAbout the lab
A safe environment for radioisotope experiments
The Radioisotope Center manages radiation exposure of radiation workers in the Graduate School of Medicine and provides their education, offering a research environment where radioisotope experiments can be carried out safely.
Nearly all nuclides used in life science research are available, and the center supports research with a large number of instruments.
The gamma irradiation device at this center, the only one among Tohoku University's radioisotope facilities, irradiates cultured cells and mice and rats, and also supports bone marrow transplantation experiments.
As its own research, the center investigates the mechanisms by which leukemia develops through abnormal expression of EVI1 and GATA2.
