The Genome Cytology Division (Institute for Human Behavior and Evolution) studies the evolution, behavioral traits, environmental responses, and reproduction of primates, including humans, through both experiments and theory. Its research spans levels from DNA, RNA, and proteins to cells, tissues, individuals, and the field. The division also welcomes new research plans proposed by students.

The Laboratory Animal Science Division (Institute for Human Behavior and Evolution) uses laboratory animal science focused on non-human primates to analyze the comparative biological characteristics of monkeys as laboratory animals. It studies differences in growth and development and in naturally occurring diseases by species, age, and environment, and what those differences mean. It also conducts basic research on anesthesia and pain, work on improving anesthesia and pain management, and animal welfare research ranging from stress assessment to environmental enrichment.

The Wildlife Science Division (Wildlife Research Center) studies the ecology, behavior, and society of diverse wild animals living on land and in the sea (mammals, birds, and others) through field surveys and laboratory analysis of samples collected in the field. Combining classical behavioral observation with cutting-edge remote monitoring technologies such as biologging, camera traps, and drones, the division tracks animals in Japan and around the world. It also studies the relationship between human activities and wild animals, and based on the results aims to conserve habitats and promote better coexistence between people and wildlife. The division includes research sections of the Wildlife Research Center, such as the Terrestrial Conservation Research Section (Professor Ikki Matsuda).

The Conservation and Welfare Science Division (Wildlife Research Center) studies the ecology, behavior, and society of terrestrial and marine wild animals (mammals, birds, and others), mainly through laboratory work. Its work includes uncovering genetic diversity and infectious diseases through DNA and parasite analysis, monitoring individual physiology through hormone analysis, and preserving the germ cells of rare species. Using experimental psychology methods and behavioral observation, it investigates animals' cognitive functions and applies the findings to the welfare and breeding of animals in captivity. The division includes research sections of the Wildlife Research Center, such as the Animal Welfare Research Section (Prof. Hirata).

Primate Field Science is a division newly established in fiscal year 2026 that comprehensively studies the ecology, adaptation, and evolution of primates, centered on fieldwork. Its research covers behavior, society, and morphology to understand the biological characteristics of humans; interactions with other organisms; coexistence with local people; fossil primates and paleoenvironments; and evolutionary history through molecular phylogenetics. In addition to fieldwork, it also carries out laboratory analysis of samples, observation of captive groups, and physiological and biochemical experiments.

The Data-Driven Science Hypothesis Generation Unit is a research unit of the Science Collaboration and Exploration Center (SACRA), affiliated with the Graduate School of Science. Researchers in mathematics, physics, geology, and other fields come together to explore new scientific principles for the age of data science and extend them to various fields. Using data analysis and machine learning, the unit pursues new research that builds governing equations and performs causal inference from large amounts of data, aiming to systematize the process of generating hypotheses from data. At the graduate level, it carries out research and education as the Interdisciplinary Fusion Course of the Graduate School of Science.

The Unexplored Quantum Metrology Unit is a research unit of the Science Collaboration and Exploration Center (SACRA), which is attached to the Graduate School of Science. It brings together experts from fields related to quantum technology and measurement to develop and apply "advanced quantum-wave measurement." Alongside developing photon sources and detectors for frequency ranges that remain unexplored, the unit is advancing research and development on new algorithms for physical measurement, biological imaging, and spectroscopic measurement, as well as on large-scale data analysis using machine learning. At the graduate level, research and education are carried out as the Interdisciplinary Fusion Course of the Graduate School of Science.

The Earth-Life Co-evolution Research Unit is a research unit of the Science Collaboration and Exploration Center (SACRA), which is attached to the Graduate School of Science. It aims to create a new interdisciplinary field that treats the global environment and life as one integrated system. Experts in life sciences, earth sciences, and data science come together to explore the relationship between biological and geological phenomena across various scales of time and space. They aim to elucidate the interaction between biological evolution and environmental change. At the graduate level, research and education are carried out as the Interdisciplinary Fusion Course of the Graduate School of Science.
Tadayoshi Adachi, Professor

The Adachi Lab studies mathematical physics, in particular partial differential equations using methods of functional analysis. Its main subject is the Schrödinger equation, the fundamental equation of quantum mechanics, and the lab investigates how its solutions behave over time. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out graduation research there (at the graduate level, this is the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Naomasa Ueki, Professor

The lab specializes in stochastic analysis, aiming to understand the laws of physical phenomena occurring in disordered media through mathematically rigorous reasoning. It investigates the properties of the mathematical models that describe these phenomena by combining operator analysis and Fourier analysis with methods of stochastic analysis. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out their graduation research there (in the graduate school, the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
