Kazuyuki Kuchitsu, Professor
0 student voices
The lab studies, at the molecular level, how plants recognize the outside world, and how they process and transmit information. The lab believes that understanding how plants live is the key to solving problems of the global environment, food, and energy. The lab uses molecular genetics based on genomic information, molecular physiology that examines the functions of living organisms without destroying them, and bioimaging technology that visualizes the movement of signaling molecules.
Takayuki Arazoe, Lecturer

The lab centers its research on developing new tools and technologies for genome editing in microbes. In microbes, genome editing has not yet had as much impact as it has in animals and plants. The lab aims to elucidate at the molecular level the arms races between plants and pathogens, between insects and pathogens, and between viruses and microbes. In addition, the lab aims to draw out the capabilities of microbes through genome editing technology and to contribute to the microbial bio-industry in food, agriculture, the environment, and medicine.
Akari Hagiwara, Associate Professor

The Hagiwara Lab analyzes the morphology and physiological functions of neural networks, centered on synapses, to understand the many functions of the brain. Synapses are the adhesive junctions connecting neurons, and are considered the basic units that support brain function. Through this research, the lab aims to contribute to elucidating the causes of neuropsychiatric disorders and developing treatments for them. The lab's research rests on three pillars: morphological analysis, development of novel optogenetic tools and their application to behavioral experiments, and observation by electron microscopy.
Hiroko Ichikawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Ichikawa Lab conducts behavioral and cognitive experiments with human participants, aiming to read the mind from the perspectives of psychology and behavioral science. It approaches the mind with two methods: eye tracking, which measures eye movements while people look at a target, and EEG measurement while they are looking at or thinking about something. Its research themes are wide-ranging, including interpersonal perception, music listening, and educational activities, and the lab actively carries out collaborative research with groups inside and outside the university. In supervising students, the lab's policy is to want them to develop the ability to think up their own topics, investigate them, and see them through on their own initiative.
Tomonori Suzuki, Professor
0 student voices
The Suzuki (Tomoyuki) Lab studies what kinds of microorganisms exist in the environment and what they do. Using johkasou (on-site wastewater treatment tanks), its main research subject, as a model for organic matter decomposition and material cycling in nature, the lab aims to advance microbial ecology and improve wastewater purification technology. From johkasou, the lab isolates bacterial strains that require metabolites produced by other bacteria, and investigates the relationships between strains, their metabolites, and the phylogeny of the isolates. The lab also studies photocatalytic sterilization, working to elucidate its mechanism, build new johkasou, and control fungi on the cultural properties of Nikko Toshogu Shrine.
