The lab applies simulation science and data science, a new current of research alongside experimental science and theoretical science, to medicine and drug discovery. It works on the analysis of medical big data and medical AI using real clinical data from Kyoto University Hospital, as well as on new methodologies and foundation models for simulation-based and AI-based drug discovery using the supercomputer Fugaku.

Child health nursing explores support that lets children grow and develop as themselves, targeting children in a wide range of health conditions and their families, from the neonatal period through adolescence and young adulthood, regardless of whether or to what degree they have health problems or disabilities. An increasing number of children develop illnesses in childhood and need long-term follow-up. For the integrated practicum and graduation research, the lab arranges for each student to do their practicum and research in a field that matches their individual interests.

About 3% of newborns have a congenital anomaly, but the causes and mechanisms of onset have been clarified for only some of them. Biological Structure brings together knowledge from basic medicine, clinical medicine, and epidemiology to study congenital anomalies. Prof. Yamada also serves as a professor at the Congenital Anomaly Specimen Analysis Center affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine, and conducts research using the center's human embryo collection.

Neurorehabilitation is rehabilitation that combines knowledge from neuroscience, clinical neurophysiology, and rehabilitation medicine. The lab develops new treatments mainly to improve motor impairment after central nervous system diseases, and clarifies their effects and mechanisms. It also aims to develop findings from basic research to a level that can be put into practice in clinical settings, and to verify their effects together with therapists in the field.

The Living Environment Nursing Lab is a field that approaches nursing science through the relationship between living environments and people. Florence Nightingale stated that many symptoms and sufferings thought to be caused by disease are actually caused by environmental factors other than the disease. Nursing improves the environment to support patients' natural ability to heal. The lab studies how adjusting the environment can better promote people's health and recovery. The research activities of its students, including undergraduates, have led to many awards at academic conferences and elsewhere.

The lab approaches dementia from a medical perspective, aiming at treatment (cure), while also valuing the perspective of care in its research. In Japan, a super-aged society, measures against dementia have become an urgent issue both medically and socially. Public interest is high, and the lab is also involved in a variety of awareness-raising activities. Motivated people who are interested in dementia are welcome, regardless of their background.

The lab considers the ethical issues that arise in healthcare and care settings, and explores the question "What is nursing that protects the dignity of the people it serves?" In particular, aiming to realize healthcare and care in line with each person's values, the lab pursues education and research on shared decision-making, advance care planning, and end-of-life care, taking Japan's cultural background into account, through collaborative research in Japan and abroad. The lab also accepts students for its lab seminar.

The lab conducts research aimed at the well-being of people who need long-term self-management, such as those with diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disease. It explores nursing care that helps people live as themselves, from the stage of prevention through the final stage of life. The lab also carries out policy research on how to make the fullest use of nursing professionals' capabilities to contribute to people's well-being, and holds a joint weekly lab seminar for undergraduate, master's, and doctoral students.

The lab studies care for critically ill patients whose lives are at risk (critical care). Life-threatening crises do not occur only in hospitals. Like traffic accidents or sudden cardiac arrest, they can happen anytime, anywhere, to anyone in everyday life. The lab pursues research that can contribute not only to improving care in hospitals but also to improving care outside hospitals, in people's everyday living settings.

Psychiatric and mental health nursing is a field of nursing that focuses on people's minds and behavior, and practices care that further improves mental health as well as care for people with mental health problems. Maintaining and restoring mental health and supporting community living for people with mental illness have become important social issues. The lab explores, as an academic discipline, care that enables everyone of all ages, including people with mental illness, to live mentally healthier lives.
