The lab conducts research, clinical care, and education on a wide range of respiratory diseases, including lung cancer, interstitial pneumonia, and respiratory infections. Many intractable lung diseases have mechanisms that are still unknown. To elucidate disease pathophysiology and develop new treatments, the lab hopes to promote advanced basic research as well as translational research that only clinicians can do. Taking advantage of its strong network of affiliated hospitals, the lab also says it wants to advance multicenter collaborative studies that generate new evidence. Clinical care is provided as the Department of Respiratory Medicine of Nagoya University Hospital.

The lab's mission is to understand the actions of hormones, which cannot be seen, and to diagnose and treat diseases caused by their excess or deficiency. Its staff range from those aiming to become true diabetes or endocrinology specialists to those who want to pursue research to the fullest. The lab keeps in close contact with affiliated hospitals in the Tokai region, and has built a hospital-clinic collaboration system with lab alumni who run their own clinics. The lab says it welcomes anyone who wants to work in clinical care or research in diabetes and endocrinology.

The Surgical Oncology Lab is part of Gastroenterological and Oncological Surgery at Nagoya University Hospital and works on the surgical treatment of cancer. In the former Surgery I, the previous professor and the professor before that were pioneers in the surgical treatment of biliary tract cancer, mainly perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, developing surgical techniques and improving their safety. Gastroenterological and Oncological Surgery also treats esophageal, gastric, and colorectal cancer and retroperitoneal tumors. In the surgical areas of the esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, and pancreas, the lab decides case by case whether to perform laparoscopic or robotic surgery. In 2023, Surgery I and Surgery II were merged into "one surgery department," and the lab's website is now shared as Gastroenterological and Oncological Surgery.

The Vascular Surgery Lab is a vascular surgery department that treats diseases of the blood vessels other than those of the brain and heart (including diseases of the lymphatic vessels), and works on clinical care, research, and education. The lab aims to train physicians who can perform not only open surgery but also endovascular treatment, such as endovascular stent graft repair, at a high level of quality. The lab values basic research that returns to clinical questions arising in daily practice, and advances translational research from basic science to the clinic. It is the first stand-alone vascular surgery department in Japan, having become independent from Nagoya University's Surgery I department.

As the Department of Gastroenterological and Oncological Surgery at Nagoya University Hospital, the lab works in two groups: gastrointestinal surgery and hepatobiliary-pancreatic surgery. In 2023, the lab merged the Department of Surgical Oncology (First Department of Surgery) and the Department of Gastroenterological Surgery (Second Department of Surgery), making a new start as "One Surgery." For surgery of the esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, and pancreas, the lab carefully determines whether surgery is indicated in each case, and also performs laparoscopic and robotic surgery. The surgical departments of Nagoya University jointly run a specialty training program, and information for medical students and residents is also available.

Breast and Endocrine Surgery provides surgical care for breast diseases, mainly breast cancer, and for diseases of endocrine organs such as the thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal glands. As a core hospital in the Nagoya-Tokai region, the lab works on minimally invasive surgery that places less burden on patients and on introducing new medical technologies. The lab also treats hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome and multiple endocrine neoplasia, in cooperation with a genetics specialty department. Alongside clinical care, the lab devotes effort to training young surgeons and students who will lead the next generation.

The site also describes the team as able to care for patients who have conditions other than heart disease, working across clinical departments. Surgical methods include minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS), transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), and aortic stent graft surgery.

The Respiratory Surgery (Thoracic Surgery) lab is a department of Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine and also a clinical department of respiratory surgery. The Thoracic Surgery department was founded in 1983, and it later carried out clinical work, research, and education under a two-department system of cardiac surgery and respiratory surgery. In 2013, respiratory surgery became independent as its own department and clinical service, and the second professor took up the post in 2019. The site introduces lung cancer, thymic epithelial tumors, pleural mesothelioma, robotic surgery, single-port thoracoscopic surgery, and lung transplantation.
