Shigeki Matsubara, Professor
0 student voices
The Matsubara Lab conducts research on "scholarly communication" based on natural language processing. Its research is divided into four areas: language understanding and reasoning, conversation and discourse understanding, digital libraries, and education and learning support. In the area of digital libraries, the lab works on open science, research data management, paper mining, and metadata generation. Professor Shigeki Matsubara is a Professor at the Information Technology Center of Nagoya University and belongs to the Department of Intelligent Systems in the Graduate School of Informatics.
Yu Enokibori, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Enokibori Lab's research areas are ubiquitous and wearable computing, medical and nursing support, and skill analysis and instruction support. Lecturer Enokibori's personal page lists activity recognition and state assessment using wearable sensors as research areas, along with achievements up to around 2020. The lab's page is Lecturer Enokibori's personal page, and its address field reads Mase Lab.
Masahiro Nagao, Associate Professor

The Nagao Lab aims to make the "resources" and "information" buried in cities visible, and to design societies and energy systems with a small environmental burden. The lab combines vehicle-mounted and airborne laser measurement (LiDAR), 3D city models, and survey and behavioral data in its research. It works on understanding unused biomass and material stock, analyzing behavior change, and optimizing energy and environmental systems. Associate Professor Masahiro Nagao serves in the Department of Urban Environmental Studies in the Graduate School of Environmental Studies and in the Department of Natural Informatics in the School of Informatics.
Masashi Tachikawa, Professor

The faculty members from the Graduate School of Environmental Studies who teach in the Department of Human and Social Information Studies research food and agriculture, governance of science and technology, the environment, and local communities from a sociological perspective. Prof. Maruyama's lab, which has its own introductory website, addresses issues related to the relationship between humans and nature in a broad sense, as well as sustainability. Graduate students conduct research applying methods from environmental sociology, historical sociology, environmental history, and science and technology studies (STS).
Hiroaki Wake, Professor

The lab visualizes the function and structure of central nervous system cells in vivo using two-photon microscopy. It investigates how homeostasis is maintained in the activity of the neural circuits that underlie higher brain functions. It works to clarify new physiological functions of microglia, the immune cells of the central nervous system. The lab's website presents it together with the Division of Multicellular Circuit Dynamics, Basic Neuroscience Research Area, National Institute for Physiological Sciences, National Institutes of Natural Sciences.
Sumiko Kiryu-Seo-Seo, Professor

The lab studies how neurons respond to damage caused by trauma, disease, aging, and stress. Using mice, it investigates at the molecular level the basic principles of the mechanisms that protect neurons and promote their repair. Noting that nerves are distributed not only in the brain but also in organs throughout the body, the lab also studies how nerves are involved in repair when organs are injured. The lab was established in November 2024.
Takaki Miyata, Professor
0 student voices
The Miyata Lab studies “brain development” in the cell biology field of the Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine. The lab's homepage features a video introducing the significance and methods of brain development research. The news section lists results on the mechanism by which the embryonic cerebral cortical primordium thickens, and on microglia in the embryonic brain. On the lab's website, it is listed as the “Takaki Miyata Lab.”
Hiroshi Kuba, Professor

The Cell Physiology Lab aims to uncover the core principles of how the brain forms and operates, using auditory neural circuits as its subject. In sound localization, the ability to tell which direction a sound comes from, one cue is the interaural time difference: the tiny difference in the time a sound reaches the left and right ears. The neural circuit that detects this time difference is in the brainstem, and the lab investigates how that circuit is built and how it works. The lab carries out multifaceted analyses using state-of-the-art research methods.
Kazuhiro Nakamura, Professor

The Integrative Physiology Lab studies the fundamental mechanisms that sustain life, such as body temperature regulation, from the molecular level to the level of the whole organism. Starting from neural circuits in the brain, the lab investigates topics such as thermoregulation, fever caused by infection, responses to psychological stress, and age-related obesity. The lab corresponds to the former Second Department of Physiology and belongs to the Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine. Third-year medical students are assigned to the lab through the Basic Medicine Seminar and spend six months working on experiments and research.
Masaki Fukata, Professor
0 student voices
The Fukata Lab, part of the Department of Neural Information Pharmacology, studies the mechanisms that regulate the function of synapses, the basic unit of higher brain function, and how those mechanisms break down in brain diseases. The lab focuses on the regulatory mechanisms of AMPA-type glutamate receptors, which are thought to form the molecular basis of memory and learning. The property by which the efficiency of synaptic transmission changes in response to external stimuli (synaptic plasticity) is thought to be the molecular basis of memory and learning. The lab combines biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, histology, electrophysiology, and mouse genetics in its research.
