The Information Circuit Architecture Lab studies the architecture of LSIs, which are at the core of information devices, and techniques for designing them efficiently. An LSI contains hundreds of millions of transistors built onto a silicon chip. Designing configurations that deliver high performance with low power consumption, and designing circuits that operate without errors in a short time, are critically important technologies. Under the motto of being "practical and empirical," the lab aims to contribute to society by building systems that are faster, lower in power consumption, smaller, and cheaper.

The Low-Power Integrated Circuit Design Lab (Niitsu Lab) studies the foundational technologies for designing energy-efficient, large-scale integrated circuits, as well as the applied technologies built on them. The lab also works on semiconductor integrated circuit systems for biomedical applications and for Beyond 5G/6G wireless communication. Together with the Sato Lab and the Hashimoto Lab, it forms the Integrated Systems Engineering Division of the Graduate School of Informatics.

The Integrated Computing Lab (Hashimoto Lab) holds the motto "Creating the foundation of computing." As society comes to depend on information systems through AI and IoT, systems that handle human lives and property are required to be highly reliable. The lab pursues the design of reliable high-performance computers, next-generation computing based on new principles, and computing systems that will change our lives.

The Remote Sensing Engineering Lab (Yokoyama Lab, Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere) develops technologies that measure the atmosphere from a distance using radio waves, and seeks to uncover the various phenomena in Earth's atmosphere. The lab develops radar technologies that measure turbulence, electrons, rain, clouds, and more using radio waves with wavelengths from several meters to several millimeters. Its targets span the atmosphere over a wide range of altitudes, from near the ground to the ionosphere above 100 km, and through international collaboration it also works to elucidate tropical atmospheric phenomena.

The Logical Life Science Lab aims to approach the mysteries of "life" and "intelligence" by integrating life science and information science. Both life and intelligence are "learning systems" that live by remaking themselves to fit their surrounding environment. The lab studies a wide range of subjects, including the human mind and decision making, the behavior of cells, audiovisual information processing and motor control in robots, and the analysis of social networks.
Taishin Nomura, Professor

The Biocybernetics Lab (formerly the Biomedical Engineering division) deepens understanding of the dynamic mechanisms by which biological functions arise, through research spanning medicine, engineering, and informatics. It studies homeodynamics and allostasis, modern reinterpretations of homeostasis, the property of keeping the body in an "optimal state", along with the control mechanisms behind them. It clarifies the mechanisms of diseases that arise when these become unstable, and develops the foundations of medical systems that support quantitative diagnosis.

The Energy Informatics Lab aims to create new energy social systems through IT. Building the energy society of the future requires considering what kind of system is appropriate from the perspectives of people, society, and the environment. The lab works on research in human interfaces and on research related to designing systems for a symbiotic society.
Shinya Maeyama, Professor

The Electromagnetic Energy Lab studies fusion energy, regarded as one of humanity's ultimate energy sources. The lab teaches the physics of plasma, the fourth state of matter, and carries out research and development in physics, systems science, and computational science aimed at making the use of fusion energy a reality. In July 2026, Professor Shinya Maeyama joined the lab.
Shigeru Inagaki, Professor

The High-Temperature Plasma Physics Lab (Institute of Advanced Energy) uses experiments and theoretical simulations to uncover the properties of ultra-high-temperature plasma aimed at fusion. The lab also studies the principles of generating, heating, and controlling high-temperature plasma, and their applications. It is a cooperating chair of the Department of Fundamental Energy Science in the Graduate School of Energy Science, and is staffed by faculty of the Institute of Advanced Energy at Uji Campus.
Kazunari Matsuda, Professor

The Energy Photophysics Lab (Institute of Advanced Energy) aims to pursue the fundamental principles of optical science grounded in nanoscience and their energy applications. Building on condensed matter physics, materials science, quantum optics, and device engineering, the lab carries out its own original research. The lab seeks to understand quantum optical phenomena in "extreme nanomaterials" such as carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional semiconductors, which are only a few atomic layers thick. The lab aims to realize highly efficient solar cells and a new science of light and energy.
