Noriaki Takagi, Professor
0 student voices
The Takagi Lab uses scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to study nanoscience on solid surfaces. A solid surface is a special place where the periodicity of the crystal is broken. The arrangement of atoms and the electronic states there differ greatly from those in the interior, and a surface can also serve as a place to create new materials that do not exist in nature. The lab combines experiments under ultra-high vacuum and at extremely low temperatures with collaboration with researchers in first-principles calculations and many-body theory of condensed matter. Undergraduates are assigned to the Materials Science Division to carry out their graduation research (in the graduate school, this is the Materials Science Division of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Naoki Fujiwara, Professor
0 student voices
The Fujiwara Lab studies the magnetic properties of superconductors from a microscopic perspective, using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) under high pressure. The lab works both on developing equipment for measurements under pressure and on studying materials such as iron-based high-temperature superconductors. Undergraduates are assigned to the Materials Science Division to carry out their graduation research (in the graduate school, this is the Materials Science Division of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Takao Morinari, Professor
0 student voices
The Morinari Condensed Matter Theory Lab studies the diverse phenomena shown by materials using theoretical methods. Using field theory and numerical calculations, the lab studies high-temperature superconductivity, Dirac electrons in solids, and black hole analogues in quantum fluids. Undergraduates are assigned to the Materials Science Division to carry out their graduation research (in the graduate school, this is the Materials Science Division of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Setsuhisa Tanabe, Professor
0 student voices
The Tanabe Lab aims to develop new photofunctional materials that will support future photonics technologies. The lab designs and synthesizes phosphors for LED lighting, wavelength-conversion materials for solar power generation, and glass for optical fiber amplifiers, and studies their optical properties. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Materials Science Course to carry out their graduation research (in graduate school, the Materials Science Course of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Hirohito Tsue, Professor
0 student voices
The Tsue Lab works on organic materials chemistry in harmony with the environment, building on structural organic chemistry, organic crystal chemistry, and synthetic organic chemistry. The lab creates organic molecular crystals that selectively take up specific molecules and investigates how they work. Taking advantage of the lightness of crystals made only of light elements, the lab studies greenhouse gases and clean-energy gases. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Materials Science Course to carry out their graduation research (in graduate school, the Materials Science Course of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Kenichi Fujita, Professor
0 student voices
Building on organic synthetic chemistry and organometallic chemistry, the Fujita Lab designs and develops molecular transformation reactions that are in harmony with the environment. By combining metals and organic molecules, the lab discovers new reactions and catalytic functions, and aims to produce organic molecules with a wide range of functions in high selectivity. Each graduate student has their own research topic and acquires skills such as the synthesis of complexes, catalytic reactions, and single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. Undergraduates are assigned to the Materials Science Division and carry out their graduation research there (at the graduate level, the Materials Science Division of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Hisao Yoshida, Professor
0 student voices
Aiming for a sustainable society in harmony with the environment, the Yoshida Lab develops new high-performance solid catalysts and photocatalysts, as well as new photocatalytic reactions. By analyzing the structures of photocatalysts and catalysts and the mechanisms of their reactions, the lab clarifies the relationship between them and builds a scientific framework for designing catalysts. Undergraduates are assigned to the Materials Science Division and carry out their graduation research there (at the graduate level, the Materials Science Division of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Takao Itioka, Professor
0 student voices
The Itioka Lab specializes in ecology, entomology, and evolutionary biology, and studies the interactions among organisms that form a web across biological communities. The lab aims to understand what these interactions have meant for evolution and how they contribute to maintaining biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems. Undergraduates join the Earth and Life Environment Course to carry out their graduation research (for graduate school, the Earth and Life Environment Course in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Hideaki Miyashita, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyashita Lab studies the diversity, multifunctionality, and evolution of the photosynthetic organisms that support life and the environment on Earth, focusing on cyanobacteria and microalgae. The lab takes a broad view from systematics to applied phycology, and also researches technologies that use the activity of photosynthetic organisms to reduce environmental risks. Undergraduates join the Earth and Life Environment Course to carry out their graduation research (for graduate school, the Earth and Life Environment Course in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).

Itaru Imayoshi, Professor
0 student voices
The Brain Function Development and Regeneration Lab (the Imayoshi Lab) uses mice as an experimental model to study the mechanisms of brain development, maturation, plasticity, and regeneration. The lab belongs to both the Brain Function Development and Regeneration field in the Graduate School of Biostudies and the Stem Cell Deconstruction field in the Institute for Life and Medical Sciences. Undergraduates can do their graduation research through the Earth and Life Environment course of the Faculty of Integrated Human Studies, and the lab accepts graduate students in the Division of Systemic Life Science, Graduate School of Biostudies.
