AboutAbout the lab
Delivering the benefits of advanced life sciences to society
Advanced life sciences such as iPS cell research and genome research are making great progress. For practical application, it is necessary to consider not only the scientific research itself but also its impact on society.
The Minari Lab values social perspectives and diversity of opinion, and considers how the benefits of advanced life sciences can be delivered to (future) society.
Key terms
- ELSI
- The ethical, legal, and social implications of research, and research that examines them

- ASEAN
- The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, a framework for regional cooperation among Southeast Asian countries
ResearchResearch themes
The lab examines issues surrounding advanced life sciences from ethical and social perspectives.
*Illustrative imageCross-border cooperation in genome research
As genomic medicine and regenerative medicine develop, the lab examines how to coordinate the international sharing of specialized knowledge and technology. Focusing on the ASEAN genome consortium, it proposed the significance of promoting mutual development among Southeast Asian countries.
*Illustrative imageRethinking ELSI research
The lab reviewed how research programs that examine the ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) of advances in human genome research should be designed. It has also compiled work on communication using art in the biomedical sciences.
