Tomonao Hosokai, Professor
0 student voices
The Quantum Beam Physics Lab (Hosokai Lab) sets out relativistic plasma engineering, ultra-high-intensity laser applications, laser-plasma particle acceleration, and applications of RF accelerators as its research themes. It belongs to Research Department 2 (Materials and Beam Science) of the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research at The University of Osaka. This department conducts research on the generation, control, and measurement of high-brightness, high-quality quantum beams.

Takahiro Kozawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Quantum Beam Materials Science Lab (Kozawa Lab) studies the chemical reactions, and the reaction fields, that quantum beams such as electron beams and extreme ultraviolet light induce in materials. The use of quantum beams in the ionizing radiation range, as in extreme ultraviolet lithography for semiconductor manufacturing, is expected to expand significantly in the future. The lab aims to clarify the mechanisms from the deposition of energy by quantum beams, through chemical reactions, to the emergence of function, and to build new chemical reaction systems that make it possible to manufacture next-generation high-performance semiconductors. On the lab's website, it is presented under the name 'Kozawa Lab.'
Yasushi Sakurai, Professor

Sakurai Lab studies technologies that use large-scale data to analyze, in real time, the time evolution of natural and social phenomena. The lab develops pioneering technologies for optimizing social activities, and works to put them into practice in society while asking 'what technology is truly practical?' Targeting IoT big data, the lab analyzes and learns the temporal changes of phenomena and activities with nonlinear dynamical models, discovers important patterns, and predicts future events. Sakurai Lab belongs to the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research at The University of Osaka, and is a cooperating chair (Intelligent Data Science Chair) of the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology.

Mamoru Fujitsuka, Professor
0 student voices
The Excited Materials Chemistry Lab (Fujitsuka Lab) uses light and radiation to bring molecules into high-energy states and studies the chemical reactions that take place there. The lab applies light and radiation under spatial and temporal control, and develops chemistry that controls reactions by exploiting the properties of molecules and of the reaction environment. Its methods include nanosecond-to-femtosecond laser flash photolysis and pulse radiolysis. The lab is recruiting graduate students for the Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, and welcomes lab visits.

Satoshi Yamaguchi, Professor

The Molecular System Creation Chemistry Lab (Yamaguchi Lab) uses synthetic organic chemistry to study new molecular systems for obtaining previously unknown biological information. The lab creates synthetic molecules with desired functions, develops systems that control or visualize biomolecules and cells, and acquires data that no one could obtain before. The molecular systems it develops serve as platform technologies for solving a wide range of problems, from medical fields such as regenerative medicine, drug discovery, and diagnostics to food and environmental fields such as useful-substance production and biosensors. The lab pursues applied research on them with collaborators in Japan and abroad. In guiding students, the lab values an approach in which students investigate the background of a problem, form a hypothesis, and test whether it is true through experiments.

Chikara Dohno, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Advanced Functional Molecules Lab is a research division of the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research (SANKEN) at Osaka University. On SANKEN's lab information page, the keywords are listed as DNA, RNA, small-molecule compounds, and functional control. It belongs to Research Division 3 (Biological and Molecular Sciences), and Associate Professor Chikara Dohno is listed as a member.
Yasunobu Yamashita, Assistant Professor
0 student voices
The Complex Molecular Chemistry Lab (Suzuki Lab) works on drug discovery, using organic chemistry as its foundation to create organic compounds that produce the intended pharmacological effect. The lab pursues chemical biology, which creates bioactive substances with new functions and uses them to elucidate biological phenomena, as well as medicinal chemistry research aimed at applications as pharmaceuticals. Drawing on broad knowledge of synthetic organic chemistry, reaction chemistry, computational chemistry, and biochemistry, the lab synthesizes new bioactive substances and elucidates their mechanisms of action. The lab is equipped with both instruments for evaluating biological activity and facilities for organic synthesis.

Shun'ichi Kuroda, Professor
0 student voices
The Biomolecular Reaction Science Lab studies the various life phenomena based on interactions (reactions) between biomolecules. Based on the mechanisms uncovered, it aims to develop technologies that contribute to bio-related industries, especially the development of biopharmaceuticals. The lab also works to clarify the active-site structure, three-dimensional structure, and catalytic mechanism of enzymes, which are biocatalysts. Graduate students are admitted through the cooperating course of the Graduate School of Frontier Biosciences and through the Department of Biological Sciences, Graduate School of Science, where the lab's faculty hold concurrent positions within the university.

Kunihiko Nishino, Professor
0 student voices
The Biomolecular Regulation Science Lab (Nishino Lab) studies how to prevent infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria, which cannot be killed by antibacterial drugs. Drug efflux pumps in bacteria expel antibacterial drugs and other substances from inside the cell, and are a cause of multidrug resistance. It has been found that bacterial genomes harbor a surprisingly large number of drug efflux pump genes. The lab is a research group of the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, The University of Osaka, and is also introduced as the Cell Biology (Biological) group of the Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Takeharu Nagai, Distinguished Professor
0 student voices
Nagai Lab (Biomolecular Function Science) lists fluorescent proteins, bioluminescent proteins, microscopy, and green biotechnology as its research themes. The lab's website describes its work as research that becomes possible only by combining optics, engineering, physics, chemistry, cell biology, developmental biology, plant science, biological engineering, and pharmaceutical sciences. Professor Takeharu Nagai serves as the head of the Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Innovative Areas "Singularity Biology." The lab is also working on modifying biomolecules that emit light without electric power and introducing them into trees.
