The Kaji Lab studies new bioanalytical technologies that measure biological substances and cells, using micro- and nanospaces made with microfabrication techniques from the semiconductor field. Toward the early detection of cancer and bacterial infections, the lab aims to develop analytical methods that place less burden on patients from blood sampling or biopsy. The lab's ultimate goal is to create Life-on-a-Chip, which artificially reproduces biological phenomena on a chip. This website belongs to Professor Kaji's group, the “Kaji Research Group.”

The Functional Materials Engineering Lab studies the development of materials for energy conversion technologies that are in harmony with the environment. The lab develops new oxygen-ion conductors for solid oxide fuel cells and also investigates lithium-ion secondary batteries. It also works on photocatalysts for producing hydrogen, catalytic processes such as hydrocarbon reforming reactions, and gas sensors for combustion control. Associate Professor Inada works on improving the functions of ceramic materials made by liquid-phase synthesis.

The Reaction and Property Theory Lab studies the electronic structures and chemical reactions of molecules and solids through theoretical calculations based on quantum mechanics. Its main research answers why a substance has a certain structure, what electronic properties it shows, and what reactions it undergoes, and theoretically designs substances with desirable properties. The lab does not conduct experiments; it carries out its research through computer calculations. On the lab's website, it is also introduced under the names "Yoshizawa Lab" and "Reaction Theory Lab."

The Molecular Information Systems Lab studies nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, from their fundamental physical properties to application development aimed at practical use. Combining polymer chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, organic chemistry, and theoretical chemistry, it aims to create materials with properties such as light absorption, light emission, ion and electron conduction, and biocompatibility. As a member of the WPI-I2CNER Electrochemical Energy Conversion Division, the lab also works on developing next-generation fuel cells. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name 'Fujigaya Lab.'
Masahiro Goto, Professor

Professor Goto of the Biomolecular Engineering Lab researches drug discovery engineering, transdermal vaccines, functional cosmetics, applications of ionic liquids to drugs, and rare metal recycling technology, among other topics. The lab works on turning biologics that require injection into formulations that can be taken orally or absorbed through the skin. It also works on developing cosmetics using a highly skin-permeable formulation technology (SO technology), and on developing systems that efficiently separate and recover metal resources. On the lab's website, the lab is listed as the "Goto-Kamiya Lab."

The Molecular Systems Chemistry Lab studies the creation of "molecular systems" that convert light energy into useful work using self-assembly, in which molecules assemble spontaneously. Using organic molecules, metal complexes, and nanomaterials as building parts, the lab develops photon upconversion, which converts low-energy light into higher-energy light, and technologies for storing solar energy. Students who join the lab first gain experience in basic organic synthesis, then work on designing and synthesizing new molecular building blocks and functional molecules. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Kimizuka Lab."
Takeshi Mori, Professor

The Functional Organization Chemistry Lab studies therapeutic and diagnostic technologies under the motto "Chemistry for Medicine." Its themes include mechanisms for delivering drugs to disease sites, more precise cancer diagnosis, cell-based medicine that uses cells themselves as drugs, and drugs that suppress excessive immune responses such as allergies. The lab brings together people from diverse backgrounds, including chemistry, molecular biology, pharmacy, medicine, and veterinary medicine. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Katayama Lab."
