Yasuyuki Ohkawa, Professor

The Ohkawa Lab studies how the genes that define a cell's identity are selected from the genome, focusing on chromatin structure. While examining the differentiation potential of stem cells in terms of chromatin structure, the lab aims to understand it by computationally analyzing epigenome data. The lab works systematically, from developing single-cell analysis technologies using high-throughput sequencers to developing technologies for analyzing large-scale data. On the lab's website, it is presented under the name "Ohkawa Lab, Division of Transcriptomics."

The Integrative Omics Lab studies life by reading and understanding it as "a large-scale information network spanning multiple layers." By closely coordinating experiments with computational analysis, the lab pursues trans-omics analysis, which reconstructs networks from multilayered data. Focusing on obesity, the lab investigates how obesity becomes a risk factor for various diseases and what blood insulin patterns mean. On the lab's website, it is presented under the name "Division of Integrative Omics."

The Molecular Neuroimmunology Lab focuses on immune cells found inside the brain and at its borders, and studies brain physiology and disease. Its research theme is to clarify how brain macrophages, such as microglia and CNS-associated macrophages (CAMs), develop and why they exist. The faculty's research topics also include understanding brain physiology and disease starting from lipid metabolism, and the role of CNS-associated macrophages in stroke. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Masuda Lab."

The Cell Heterogeneity Lab studies the mechanisms that keep skeletal muscle in a healthy state, and the significance of heterogeneity among mesenchymal stromal cells. Its listed research keywords are skeletal muscle, mesenchymal stromal cells, sarcopenia, muscle regeneration, and stem cells. The lab belongs to the Center for Deep Omics Science, affiliated with the Medical Institute of Bioregulation.

The Gene Expression Dynamics Lab, at the Center for Deep Omics Science of the Medical Institute of Bioregulation, studies how transcriptional bursting is regulated. Using mouse early embryos, in vivo systems, and embryonic stem (ES) cells as models, the lab applies techniques such as live imaging, multimodal spatial omics, and genome editing. The lab also investigates how the diversity in gene expression that accompanies transcriptional bursting affects cell fate determination. Another research target is the mechanism by which differences in gene expression levels between cells increase with aging.

The Biomedical Information Analysis Lab uses data science techniques to analyze large-scale human data such as genomes and omics. The lab develops analysis methods and software suited to measurement instruments, and builds systems that use cohort and clinical specimen data for disease research. Through its research, the lab is also training people for the data science era who can analyze human genome, omics, and clinical data. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Nagasaki Lab."
Kosuke Tomimatsu, Associate Professor

The Disease Genome Biology Lab studies cellular senescence, epigenetics, and chromatin at the High-Depth Omics Science Center of the Medical Institute of Bioregulation. Its research themes also include developing spatial multi-omics methods at single-cell resolution. A 2021 paper with Associate Professor Kosuke Tomimatsu as first author reported that during cellular senescence, some genes become active in heterochromatin regions.
