Machine-translated · View original
A lab that rebuilds our understanding of life by creating tissues from cells.

AboutAbout the lab
Create to understand.
The Yamato Lab studies regenerative medicine, with tissue engineering and stem cell biology as its two pillars.
Regenerative medicine is a field that combines stem cell biology with tissue engineering, which reassembles the structure of tissues from cultured cells.
Whereas molecular biology tries to understand life by breaking organisms down into their parts, the lab seeks to understand life through the practice of building tissues.
Because this is an entirely new kind of medicine with no existing models, and because the lab believes that preparing the social environment is also important, it aims to build its own regulatory science.
Key terms
- Tissue engineering
- A field that combines cells and materials to create, through culture, structures similar to those of tissues in the body
- Stem cell
- A cell that can divide to make copies of itself while also differentiating into many different types of cells
- Medical regulatory science
- A field that considers how to evaluate new medical technologies on the basis of scientific evidence and deliver them to society
ResearchResearch themes
The Yamato Lab works on regenerative medicine as a next-generation form of medicine, with stem cell biology and tissue engineering as its two pillars. Alongside the approach of understanding organisms by breaking them down into parts, the lab aims to understand life in an integrated way through the practice of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. It also puts effort into preparing the social environment for regenerative medicine to be put into full-scale practice, and into building regulatory science.
