The Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine Lab studies a wide range of problems related to emergency and intensive care, aiming to apply the results in clinical practice. At Chiba University Hospital, the emergency and intensive care departments handle patients continuously, from prehospital emergency care and initial treatment in the emergency department to treatment in the intensive care unit. The main research themes are genetic polymorphisms and functional analysis in sepsis, increased vascular permeability, and the development of artificial supportive therapies. The lab also develops ICT systems and biometric devices to address challenges in emergency and disaster medicine, as well as AI-based prediction algorithms and diagnostic imaging support tools.

Pediatric Surgery is a lab that treats congenital anomalies, tumors, and functional disorders in children from newborns to age 15. It covers organs of the neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis, an area that requires knowledge and skills specific to children. Research centers on the themes held since the lab's founding: surgical metabolism and nutrition, pediatric malignant solid tumors, biliary atresia, and the development and function of the gastrointestinal tract. Taking advantage of being a general hospital, the lab works with the departments of pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, and adult specialties to build a system that provides continuous care from fetus to adulthood.

The Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Lab deals with abnormalities and congenital conditions of the craniomaxillofacial bones, lymphedema, breast reconstruction, and more. In its research, the lab is conducting clinical studies of distraction osteogenesis for congenital hypoplasia of the craniomaxillofacial bones, jointly with the Department of Anesthesiology. In its basic research, the lab studies facial anatomy, flap anatomy, the anatomy of lymphatic and blood vessels, and osteotomies of the craniofacial bones, using unfixed cadavers. The lab studies a wide range of topics, from elucidating the physiological properties of adipocytes to the engraftment mechanisms of fat grafting and gene therapy.

The Bioenvironmental Medicine Lab studies, in a broad way, how the environment affects human health. Its predecessor was the former First Department of Anatomy, and in the School of Medicine the lab teaches gross anatomy and an introduction to embryology. Its research is unusual for an anatomy department, centering on preventive medicine suited to the 21st century. The lab accepts many working-adult graduate students and works with organizations such as the WHO, striving to make sure its research results benefit future generations in society and around the world.

The Public Health Lab studies how to find genes involved in diseases of unknown cause and intractable diseases. By identifying genes involved in onset, exacerbation, and response to treatment, the lab aims to elucidate causes, establish diagnostic methods, and realize precision medicine. The lab targets both multifactorial diseases and monogenic diseases, and several joint projects with clinical departments are underway. The lab also actively analyzes undiagnosed cases in which a hereditary disease was suspected in various clinical departments.

The Environmental and Occupational Health Lab studies how the environment and work affect human health. In environmental health, the lab investigates how heavy metals and other substances affect health, using both experiments and epidemiology. In occupational health and occupational health science, the lab conducts epidemiological research on how work affects health, and also studies the relationship between work and people from an interdisciplinary perspective.

Forensic medicine is the field that medically determines the cause of death of deceased people and the extent of injuries sustained by living people. The Forensic Medicine Education and Research Center, which is run together with the lab, has six core divisions: forensic pathology, forensic toxicology, forensic genetics, forensic odontology, forensic imaging, and clinical forensic medicine. Each division works independently while collaborating with the others in education, research, and practice. The center opened in April 2014. In addition to investigating causes of death, it works on clinical forensic medicine, a field that remains largely undeveloped in Japan.

Japanese Oriental (Kampo) Medicine is a clinical discipline that compensates for the weaknesses of Eastern and Western medicine and makes use of the strengths of each to provide better care. It was proposed by the first professor, Prof. Terasawa, and the lab's roots go back to a prewar student club, the Oriental Medicine Study Group. The lab holds that Western medicine excels at seeing the trees (the disease) while Kampo medicine excels at seeing the forest (the patient), and it aims to achieve both. The work is carried out jointly by the Japanese Oriental (Kampo) Medicine Lab in the Graduate School of Medicine (clinical research division) and the Department of Japanese Oriental (Kampo) Medicine at the University Hospital (clinical practice division).

Medical Education works to improve the quality of medical education and the educational environment at the Chiba University School of Medicine and its University Hospital. It operates as the Medical Education Research Lab, a collaboration of Medical Education in the Graduate School of Medicine, the Center for General Medical Education and Training at the University Hospital, and the Clinical Skills Center. Its role is to support the faculty members who carry out education. From the standpoint of education specialists, it aims to help them with how to teach, assess, and run education. The lab believes that as long as medicine and healthcare advance every day, and patient needs and the society that supports healthcare keep changing, medical education must also keep renewing itself.

Diagnostic Reasoning studies general medicine, which examines undiagnosed symptoms and health problems without limiting the investigation to the organ that causes them. It is run together with the Department of General Medicine at Chiba University Hospital, and first-visit outpatient consultations are in principle conducted as second-opinion outpatient visits. Based on the position that most outpatient diseases can be diagnosed from the medical history, it places particular emphasis on the medical interview. As clinical research, it has also worked on developing a large language model specialized in diagnosing diseases.
