The lab uses nanoscale quantum sensors to measure the state of stem cells and regenerative cells.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring the state of stem cells with quantum sensors.
The Quantum Medical Engineering Lab applies quantum technologies such as nanoscale quantum sensors to regenerative medical engineering, developing technologies to examine the state of stem cells and regenerative cells.
By measuring physicochemical parameters of cells such as temperature, pH, and radicals, the lab aims to apply the results to quality control before transplantation and to diagnosis inside the living body after transplantation.
In this way, the lab aims to deepen understanding of cell states inside and outside the body and to contribute to the fields of regenerative medicine and developmental biology.
On the lab's website, it is introduced as the "Quantum Regenerative Medical Engineering Team" of the Institute for Quantum Life Science, National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST).
Key terms
- Nanoscale quantum sensor
- A tiny sensor that uses quantum technology to measure cell temperature, pH, and other properties. This lab uses fluorescent nanodiamonds.
- Fluorescent nanodiamond
- A type of nanoscale quantum sensor. It is taken up by cells and used to measure the temperature inside them.
- Stem cell
- A cell with the ability to turn into many different types of cells. It is a source material for regenerative medicine.

ResearchResearch themes
In regenerative medicine, there is concern that differences in the state of stem cells and regenerative cells greatly affect how regenerative function emerges, but the nature of these differences is still unclear. The lab applies quantum technologies such as nanoscale quantum sensors to regenerative medical engineering and works on creating technologies to measure cell temperature, pH, radicals, and other parameters.
