The Pathogenic Microbiology and Microbiome Lab conducts research and education in microbiology to contribute to the eradication of infectious diseases and the reduction of their threat. At the molecular level, the lab investigates the virulence of pathogenic bacteria such as streptococci, and how changes in the microbiome of the gut, skin, and oral cavity relate to disease. In education, the lab teaches pathogenic microbiology to undergraduate and graduate students in health sciences, aiming to train researchers and healthcare professionals who can act on their own to solve problems related to infectious diseases. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Okamoto Lab".

The Molecular Biochemistry Lab conducts research on the pathological biochemistry of glycans. The diseases it targets are mainly cancer and digestive diseases. Because glycan structures vary between cells and tissues, glycans are also called the "faces of cells," and they are used clinically as disease markers such as tumor markers. Using the latest glycan analysis technology, the lab aims to develop new diagnostic and testing methods for digestive diseases that are considered difficult to treat.

The Molecular Pathology Lab studies the nature of cancer, in the hope that its findings will lead to better cancer diagnosis and treatment. Through both cell experiments and research on clinical materials, meaning specimens from patients, the lab aims to attack cancer from two sides. The professor likens cancer tissue to a city invaded by a foreign organism. The lab believes that molecular biology techniques that analyze DNA, RNA, and epigenetics are useful for investigating the character of cancer.
