Masaru Tanaka, Professor
0 student voices
The Soft Materials Interdisciplinary Chemistry Lab studies materials with excellent biocompatibility for use in medical and healthcare products. The lab aims to understand, at the molecular level, the phenomena that occur at the interface between cells and materials, and to establish design guidelines for biocompatible materials. In particular, it focuses on water molecules at the place where materials meet biological components, and has proposed the intermediate water concept. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Tanaka Lab".

Gaku Fukuhara, Professor

The Functional Materials Interdisciplinary Chemistry Lab (Fukuhara Lab) studies photofunctional soft materials for cancer diagnosis and treatment. The lab searches for and develops materials, ranging from organic molecules to supramolecules and polymers, that can measure the pressure (acoustic waves) actually applied to cells. The background is near-future cancer medicine, which requires diagnostic and therapeutic technologies that place little burden on the body. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Fukuhara Lab".

Kaoru Tamada, Professor
0 student voices
The Nano-Biodevice International Collaboration Lab is a unit in the Soft Materials Division of the Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering. Professor Kaoru Tamada creates new functional materials through the self-assembly of molecules and nanoparticles and studies their application to biosensing. Associate Professor Yusuke Arima aims to control the functions of cells and tissues using surface chemistry methods and to measure biomolecules. Because the lab's own page does not describe its research, this introduction is based on the university's researcher information and the page of the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science.

Satoru Kidoaki, Professor
0 student voices
Professor Satoru Kidoaki of the Mechano-Biomaterials International Collaboration Lab creates biomaterials that manipulate the mechanobiology of cells and tissues. The fundamental theme of the research is to understand and control the mechanisms by which interactions spanning the hierarchy of biological phenomena operate in time and space. The lab works on creating materials that manipulate stem cells and cell migration, materials that guide tissue regeneration, and materials used for diagnosing cancer cells.

The Polymer Biomaterials Lab studies the design and synthesis of high-performance polymers that control the adhesion of specific cells. It examines interactions among cells, proteins, and polymers using nano-bio interface analysis. According to the lab, this research enables integrated research and development across organic and polymer synthesis, bio-interface analysis, and cell engineering. The lab aims to establish polymer biomaterials science, covering polymer-based artificial tissues and medical materials used in fields such as medicine and biological analysis.

Chenbao Ye, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The lab of Associate Professor Chenbao Ye in the Fusion Materials Division studies oxide nanostructures as electrocatalysts. Associate Professor Ye also holds a concurrent appointment in the Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Engineering Sciences, Department of Interdisciplinary Engineering Sciences.

Ken Tanaka, Professor
0 student voices
Prof. Tanaka's lab studies materials with excellent biocompatibility for use in medical and healthcare products. The lab aims to understand, at the molecular level, the phenomena that occur at the interface between cells and materials, and to establish design guidelines for biocompatible materials. Building on polymer design and synthesis, interface analysis, and analysis of cell-material interactions, the lab studies medical materials that can be used for diagnosis and treatment. On the lab's website, it is introduced as Prof. Tanaka's lab in the Soft Materials Interdisciplinary Chemistry Field of the Soft Materials Division, Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering.

Masato Ito, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The lab of Associate Professor Masato Ito applies the changes in water activity and the unusual ion conduction phenomena that arise from molecular crowding effects inside cells to the development of energy devices. In particular, for secondary batteries, it aims to solve rate capability, durability, and safety, which have tended to be put aside until now, from the perspective of biomimetics (an approach that takes living systems as a model). Its method is to rethink material selection, molecular assembly, and interface control.
