Takeshi Nakano, Professor

The lab combines chemical biology, which uses the power of chemistry to explore unknown areas of living things, with molecular and cell biology to study how plants grow. Starting from the view that plant growth rests on two pillars, cell division, differentiation, and elongation on one side and photosynthesis on the other, the lab searches for natural and synthetic compounds and the new genes involved. For graduate school, the lab corresponds to the Plant Chemical Biology group (Nakano Lab) in the Graduate School of Biostudies. Undergraduates are assigned to the lab in their fourth year, and from graduate school onward belong to the Graduate School of Biostudies.

Takayuki Kohchi, Professor

The Plant Molecular Biology lab studies, at the molecular level, the growth mechanisms unique to plants, in which cells proliferate and differentiate flexibly in response to the environment. Using the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, a bryophyte that holds a key to the evolution of land plants, as its main model plant, the lab centers on molecular genetics and aims to conduct research spanning levels from genes to whole organisms to ecosystems. In graduate school, the lab is the Gene Function and Expression field (Kohchi Lab) of the Graduate School of Biostudies. Undergraduates carry out their graduation research in their fourth year in the Division of Applied Life Sciences, and from graduate school they belong to the Department of Integrated Life Sciences in the Graduate School of Biostudies.
