Motonori Oota, Professor
0 student voices
The Oota Lab studies bioinformatics with the aim of understanding the wonders of life phenomena theoretically. Its main research subjects are protein sequences, three-dimensional structures, interactions and association, and functions, as well as genomes. The lab's main methods are database analysis and simulation, and it also pursues research using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The lab basically does not conduct experiments, and each member works on their own research theme.
Yoshihiro Yamanishi, Professor
0 student voices
The Yamanishi Lab conducts research in bioinformatics and chemoinformatics, analyzing big data from medicine, pharmaceutical science, and life science. For societal application, the lab works on AI drug discovery, precision medicine, regenerative medicine, and preventive medicine, and develops machine learning algorithms for these purposes. Its research themes also include drug repositioning, which finds new therapeutic effects of existing drugs, and elucidating the mechanisms of action of foods and Kampo (traditional Japanese herbal) medicines. The lab belongs to the Department of Complex Systems Science in the Graduate School of Informatics.
Setsuyuki Aoki, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Aoki Lab conducts research on living organisms, centered on experiments and observation. Using moss (bryophytes), the lab investigates the mechanism and evolution of the "biological clock" that many organisms have inside their bodies. The lab invites people who want to study living organisms by seeing and handling them directly, or who want to acquire skills in genetic engineering, to join its research.
Masaki Tsukamoto, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Tsukamoto Lab studies the synthesis of biologically related compounds and polymer compounds, based on organic chemistry. The compounds it works with include nucleosides and nucleotides with useful biological activity, and polyimides. In collaboration with others, the lab aims to create organic friction modifiers to improve the fuel efficiency of automobiles and machine tools. The lab is part of the Life Informatics Division in the Department of Complex Systems Science, Graduate School of Informatics.
Norio Yoshida, Professor
0 student voices
The Yoshida Lab conducts theoretical chemistry research that models the molecular world using the laws of physics and reproduces chemical phenomena occurring inside living organisms on a computer. It focuses in particular on the role that solutions play in phenomena arising in complex assemblies of molecules. Centered on the statistical mechanics theory of liquids, the lab works on developing methods that combine approaches from quantum chemistry, molecular simulation, and information science. The lab belongs to the Materials Informatics Division of the Department of Complex Systems Science, Graduate School of Informatics, and carries out its research in collaboration with the Higashi, Matsumoto, and Tsutsumi groups, among others, in the same division.
Masahiro Higashi, Professor
0 student voices
The Higashi Lab uses theoretical and computational chemistry to study the mechanisms behind complex chemical reactions and physical properties in condensed-phase systems. It focuses in particular on reactions and properties involving photoexcited states, and also develops new high-accuracy analysis methods for this purpose. The lab also collaborates with many experimental and theoretical researchers, aiming to understand a wide range of chemical phenomena from multiple perspectives. The lab belongs to the Materials Information Theory chair in the Department of Complex Systems Science, Graduate School of Informatics, and conducts research in cooperation with the Yoshida Lab, Tsutsumi Lab, and Matsumoto Lab in the same chair.
Takuro Tsutsumi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Tsutsumi Lab uses computational chemistry and information science methods, aiming to clarify why and how chemical phenomena occur. The lab develops methodologies for extracting and understanding the essential information that governs chemical reactions and phenomena from the complex data obtained through computational and experimental chemistry. Recently, the lab has also been working on computational science for the solution properties of polymers and on building large-scale databases for polymer informatics. The lab belongs to the Materials Information Theory chair in the Department of Complex Systems Science, Graduate School of Informatics, and conducts research in cooperation with the Yoshida Lab, Higashi Lab, and Matsumoto Lab in the same chair.
Eisuke Kita, Professor
0 student voices
The Simulation Science Lab uses machine learning and computer simulation to research how to predict and control phenomena. Its main research targets include image recognition in agriculture, easing traffic congestion, and generating robot control programs. The lab also works on structural optimization using evolutionary computation and on the study of financial and economic systems.
Reiji Suzuki, Professor
0 student voices
The lab builds artificial worlds (societies) inside computers and studies the mechanisms by which emergent phenomena arise, by observing how agents within them influence one another. Emergent phenomena are those in which, when many elements influence one another, properties that cannot be predicted by looking at each element alone appear as characteristics of the whole. Within the field of artificial life, each member searches on their own for what is interesting and what remains unexplained, and settles on a research topic through trial and error. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Artificial Life Laboratory, Suzuki Unit."
Koichiro Nagamine, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Nagamine Lab in the Emergent Systems Theory Division studies how to extract, analyze, and visualize the various kinds of information contained in natural materials and in the structures of human society. Based on the results, the lab aims to clarify how those materials and structures came to be and what properties they have. Its subjects include the composition of gases trapped in granite, microscope images of thin sections of rock, and images from Earth observation satellites. The lab also conducts research comparing how addresses are written in Japan and the United States.
