Yoshinobu Tsujii, Program-Specific Professor

The Polymer Materials Design Lab (Tsujii Lab) aims to create new soft matter through basic and applied research on precision polymerization methods for polymers, in particular living radical polymerization. The lab designs polymers whose primary structure is precisely controlled, analyzes in detail the higher-order structures that those polymers form, and links this to functionalization, carrying out synthesis, property evaluation, and functionalization as one continuous process.

The Controlled Polymer Synthesis Lab (Yamago Lab) aims to create 'brilliant molecules' through organic synthesis and polymer synthesis, with the keywords radicals, living radical polymerization, heteroatom compounds, organometallic compounds, curved aromatic compounds, and functional materials. A major goal of the lab is to precisely synthesize high-molecular-weight molecules whose structures have been difficult to control during synthesis. The lab also keeps in mind that materials built around the compounds it develops will actually be used in society.

The Developmental System Control Lab aims to understand the principles by which organs such as the brain and heart are built through cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration, and to recreate functional organ formation in vitro. The lab develops technologies for recreating organ formation using pluripotent stem cells (ES cells/iPS cells), analyzes the formation process, and investigates the mechanisms by which many cells cooperate to build functional organs.
Hiroshi Kageyama, Professor

The Solid State Chemistry Lab (Kageyama Lab) studies the synthesis and functions of mixed-anion compounds, which contain two or more anions, and leads the field by building its fundamental theory and publishing review papers and textbooks. The lab also contributes to a hydrogen society through hydrogen-containing ceramic materials and explores new materials using every available synthesis method. It promotes a research environment without barriers between fields, with members ranging from synthetic chemists to physicists.

The Catalytic Function Chemistry Lab (Abe Lab) develops new photocatalytic systems, centered on research into "artificial photosynthesis," which produces hydrogen directly from water using sunlight. The lab also works on "photo-driven environmental purification," which uses light energy to decompose harmful substances and render them harmless, and on "photo-driven fine chemical synthesis," which synthesizes useful compounds.

The Catalyst Design Engineering Lab aims to contribute, from the standpoint of materials science, to future energy conversion technologies and environmental problems. Many of the materials it handles are inorganic compounds and ceramics, which it combines or composites with metals and polymer materials to build devices such as fuel cells and catalysts for hydrogen production.
Tetsuo Sakka, Professor
0 student voices
The research introduction of the Functional Materials Chemistry Lab (Sakka Lab) lists four topics: structure formation by solid fine particles at interfaces, in situ elemental analysis in water using laser plasma emission spectra, the structure and dynamics of ionic liquid interfaces, and measurement theory for liquid structure. Focusing on solid–liquid and liquid–liquid interfaces, the lab combines laser spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements with molecular simulation and integral equation theory.
Koji Miki, Associate Professor

The Fundamental Hydrocarbon Chemistry Lab works on methods for synthesizing heterocyclic compounds using transition metal complexes as catalysts, and on creating complexes with bent alkyne ligands. The lab also develops functional molecules for medicine, including molecular machines that deliver drugs only to cells exposed to light, molecular probes that track enzyme activity and pH changes inside cells, and contrast agents for cancer.
Teruyuki Kondo, Professor

The Advanced Biomedical Engineering Lab (Kondo Lab) designs and synthesizes molecular probes that combine the ability to accumulate at specific disease sites such as cancer with the ability to generate the signals needed for imaging, in order to enable early detection of disease and improve diagnostic accuracy. The lab carries out the full research sequence, through to evaluating function and efficacy in cell and animal experiments, and also works on organometallic chemistry centered on ruthenium complex catalysts.
Tetsuaki Fujihara, Professor

The Catalytic Organic Chemistry Lab (Fujihara Lab) uses transition metal complex catalysts to develop a variety of organic synthesis reactions that use carbon dioxide as a carbon source. The lab also aims to pioneer new catalytic reactions that form the basis of chemical transformation and the development of new materials, to develop catalytic reactions with higher efficiency and selectivity than existing reactions, and to improve catalyst function by modifying the periphery of ligands.
