Tamura Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that links clinical experience in neurosurgery to the development of medical devices.
AboutAbout the lab
From clinical experience to device development.
The Tamura Lab applies experience gained in neurosurgical practice to research on the evaluation of medical devices and drugs.
Its work has covered functional neurosurgery, stereotactic radiotherapy, awake surgery in brain tumor operations, and the assessment of higher brain function to support patients' return to society after surgery.
Drawing on experience with investigator-initiated clinical trials and with device development that combines medicine and engineering, the lab focuses on building mechanisms that allow clinical research to proceed smoothly.
From a standpoint that integrates the humanities and the sciences, the lab builds the academic foundations of regulatory science and works on human resource development through collaboration among industry, government, and medicine.
Key terms
- Stereotactic radiosurgery
- A treatment that focuses radiation on a single point of a lesion without opening the head
- Awake surgery
- Brain surgery performed while the patient is conscious, which allows the surgical team to check language and motor functions as the operation proceeds
- Investigator-initiated clinical trial
- A clinical trial planned and conducted by physicians rather than by companies. It is carried out in areas where there is a clear need but companies find it hard to get involved
ResearchResearch themes
The Tamura Lab aims to make the fullest use of clinical experience in neurosurgery, particularly stereotactic radiotherapy, in research on medical regulatory science. Through experience with investigator-initiated clinical trials and with medical device development that integrates medicine and engineering, it builds mechanisms for carrying out clinical research smoothly. It also seeks to create a venue for human resource development and exchange through collaboration among industry, government, and medical academia.
