Integrative Pharmacology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A pharmacology lab that measures the inner ear and pharmacokinetics in vivo.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring local sites in the living body as they really are
The Integrative Pharmacology Lab focuses mainly on the inner ear and pharmacokinetics, studying in detail how the body is built and how it works, and how diseases arise.
The lab draws on techniques and knowledge from other fields, including engineering, and uses measurement technologies that it has developed and optimized on its own through medical-engineering collaboration.
Using animal models, the lab is committed to measuring local sites in vivo, and combines this with histological, biochemical, and molecular biological analyses.
The lab has also begun research on hearing, the brain, and brain diseases.
Key terms
- Inner ear
- The part deep inside the ear that is involved in hearing sound
- Pharmacokinetics
- The properties describing how a drug moves through the body
- in vivo
- Studying something as it is, inside the body of a living animal

ResearchResearch themes
The lab believes that to understand how the body works and how diseases arise, it is necessary to measure, on the spot and as they really are, the local pictures that cells create, link them to the level of tissues and organs, and understand the living body as a system. Focusing mainly on the inner ear and pharmacokinetics, the lab carries out in vivo local measurements using technologies developed through medical-engineering collaboration, and has now also begun research on hearing, the brain, and brain diseases.
