The Cancer Stem Cell Regulation endowed department analyzes immune responses against cancer cells and researches the development of immunotherapies that target cancer cells, especially cancer stem cells. Centered on peptide vaccine therapy targeting WT1, which is expressed in many cancers, the lab continues research to enhance its effect from both basic and clinical perspectives. Recently, to overcome the decline in quality of infused T cells, the lab has also been working on producing T cells that exhibit and maintain high function. It is an environment where data obtained in mice can be verified using human specimens collected in clinical trials and drug-approval trials.

The Healthcare Economics and Management endowed department conducts research on healthcare economics, healthcare administration, and healthcare management. Covering medicine, economics, management, and public administration, as well as engineering, pharmacy, dentistry, and other fields, it pursues interdisciplinary research on healthcare. It takes up challenges that cannot be solved from a medical viewpoint or in clinical settings alone, such as medical care for the elderly, physician shortages, and deficits in hospital management. Beyond research and education, the department is run with an emphasis on contributing to society. The information on the lab's website dates from around 2013.

The Endowed Chair of Cancer Immunology pursues basic and clinical research toward new cancer immunotherapies that are gentle on the body and have few side effects. Centered on the WT1 peptide vaccine, which targets the cancer antigen WT1, the lab investigates ways to enhance the vaccine's effect and its potential as a preventive vaccine. The lab conducts its research in collaboration with other related departments, many clinicians, and researchers overseas. It is an endowed chair at the Borderless Design Medical Research Center, Division of Health Sciences, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University.

The Beyond Cell Reborn Endowed Chair (Yoshimori Lab) studies membrane trafficking, the mechanism by which molecules move around inside cells. In particular, the lab focuses on autophagy, the process by which cells break down components they no longer need. Taking advantage of its place in the medical school, the lab collaborates with clinical departments to conduct research toward the prevention and treatment of diseases involving autophagy.

The Joint Research Chair of Next-Generation Endoscopic Therapeutics (Project ENGINE) develops new medical devices jointly with companies, starting from problems that physicians identify in clinical practice. Working with company subgroups in an end-to-end manner, from the basic and preclinical stages through to commercialization, the lab aims for early implementation in society. Data obtained during development are shared between the university and the participating companies. The university publishes them academically, and the companies use them to develop and improve devices. The lab also accepts company personnel engaged in medical device research and development, and trains development personnel using clinical training and animal experiment facilities.

The Collaborative Research Institute for Regeneration-Inducing Medicine was jointly established by The University of Osaka and StemRIM Inc. and specializes in developing regeneration-inducing drugs. It defines the body's own ability to heal injuries and diseases as "regeneration induction," and aims to help patients by developing drugs that can harness this ability at will. Development is under way targeting epidermolysis bullosa, acute cerebral infarction, chronic liver disease, knee osteoarthritis, and other conditions. The institute actively welcomes young researchers who will lead the development of next-generation regeneration-inducing drugs.
