The Integrative Ecology Lab aims to gain an integrated understanding of the diversity, complexity, and adaptive evolution that characterize ecosystems. Ecosystems are enormous complex systems driven by diverse organisms interacting with one another. The lab uses a wide range of tools: analytical methods such as mathematical and statistical models, ecological monitoring data obtained from underwater visual surveys by diving, environmental DNA, and acoustic observation in the sea, and artificial ecosystem experiments using bacteria and insects. Professor Kaori Fujita (concurrent appointment) studies biodiversity and natural capital in business, the relationship between natural capital disclosure and finance, sustainable procurement that takes the environment and society into account, and the SDGs and regional revitalization. Assistant Professor Kota Ishikawa studies behavioral ecology and community ecology. Assistant Professor Chisato Kobayashi (project appointment) studies plant-processing behavior of herbivorous insects, interspecific interactions surrounding herbivorous insects, the evolution of predator-avoidance behavior, and the relationship between humans and nature. In the graduate school, the lab corresponds to the Integrative Ecology group of the Department of Ecological Developmental Adaptability Life Sciences, Graduate School of Life Sciences.

The Microbial Genetics and Evolution Lab studies bacteria that degrade environmental pollutants chemically synthesized by humans. It aims to comprehensively understand, at the levels of enzymes, genes, genomes, cells, populations, and the environment, how such bacteria arose and by what mechanisms they can metabolize recalcitrant compounds. The knowledge gained is also used to establish methods for developing untapped microbial functions and for applications in environmental remediation.

The Evolutionary Genomics Lab (Makino Lab) uses large-scale biological information to understand the genetic basis of organisms' traits and aims to elucidate their evolutionary processes. As data such as genome sequences and gene expression accumulate rapidly with technological innovations like next-generation sequencing, it is becoming increasingly important to find what makes organisms fascinating in this vast amount of information. In particular, the lab focuses on genes duplicated in the genome and studies their relationship to diseases and ecological characteristics. In the graduate school, the lab corresponds to the Evolutionary Genomics group of the Department of Molecular and Chemical Life Sciences, Graduate School of Life Sciences.
