Ryuta Misumi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Misumi Lab studies mixing (agitation and blending) technology, which is important in a wide range of fields including the chemical and food industries. The lab captures flow-driven phenomena in stirred tanks and reaction vessels using newly developed measurement techniques, and builds analysis methods such as numerical simulation based on the resulting data. The lab is also working to apply the knowledge gained about mixing to new engineering settings such as biotechnology and supercritical processes. The lab accepts inquiries, including online meetings, from third-year students in the Chemical Applications EP (Educational Program) who wish to join the lab, and from students at other universities who wish to enter graduate school.
Yuichi Miyake, Professor
0 student voices
The Yuichi Miyake Lab studies the assessment and management of environmental risk, centered on chemical substances. Its key research topics are environmental fate analysis, which examines how chemical substances behave in the environment, and exposure assessment, which evaluates how people are exposed to them. The lab has published papers on analytical methods for measuring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their halogenated derivatives, and on measurement methods using passive samplers.
Sanehiro Muromachi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Muromachi Lab studies the properties of hydrates, which are water-containing crystals, and their use in gas separation, gas storage, heat storage, and more. Its listed research keywords include methane hydrate, gas hydrate, semi-clathrate hydrate, thermophysical properties of fluids, and crystal structure analysis. In a 2019 commentary article, a faculty member of the lab stated that because gas hydrates form from pure water, they can be used for desalination and for concentrating aqueous solutions, and can also separate components from mixed gases.
Masahiko Aihara, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Aihara Lab studies processes involved in hydrogen production, gas separation, and heat recovery from the perspectives of chemical energy engineering, reaction engineering, and separation engineering. Its research keywords also include system integration and holistic analysis. Separation membranes that can be used under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions, and mechanisms that use solid reactants to separate substances or recover heat, appear in the lab's research history and in its themes for joint research.
Minoru Takeda, Professor
0 student voices
The Biological Systems Engineering Lab views living organisms as dynamic entities that are alive, and aims to shape engineering based on this dynamic and healthy picture of life. Its research keywords are glycoconjugates, applied biochemistry, and environmental biotechnology. Using methods such as biochemistry and molecular biology, the lab investigates the structures outside cells, useful enzymes, and microbial communities involved in water treatment and fermented foods. The lab is also known as the Takeda Lab, and belongs to the Bio Education Program of the Department of Chemistry and Life Science, Faculty of Science and Engineering.
Nozomu Iwabuchi, Assistant Professor
0 student voices
The Iwabuchi Lab studies the "molecular-level battle" between plants and the pathogens that threaten them, such as filamentous fungi, bacteria, and viruses. It works to clarify how pathogens hijack plant immunity, and also takes on the development of new industrial technologies that make use of those mechanisms in reverse. Its goal is to create agricultural technologies for a sustainable future. The lab's strengths include handling a wide variety of plant pathogenic microorganisms, analyzing microbiomes, and observing gene expression in real time using luminescent reporters.
Manabu Kuroki, Professor
0 student voices
The Kuroki Lab studies statistical science that uncovers the “why” behind phenomena through data and mathematics, centered on statistical causal inference. Its central goal is to develop and put into practice statistical analysis methods aimed at applications in fields such as medicine, engineering, social sciences, and information science. The lab conducts joint research with companies and academic research institutions, and offers hands-on opportunities to students who are interested in analyzing real-world data and hope to enter graduate school. As a rule, the lab accepts third- and fourth-year undergraduates in the Mathematical Science Education Program.
Masatomo Uehara, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Uehara Lab studies magnetism and superconductivity at low temperatures, and works to develop superconductors and magnetic materials that show useful physical properties. Its ultimate goal is to synthesize a material that becomes superconducting at room temperature. Beyond the search for superconductors, the lab also aims to open up new and interesting physical properties, such as colossal magnetoresistance. The lab also carries out measurements of magnetic, thermal, and electrical conduction properties, as well as theoretical analysis of experimental results.
Shinya Ohno, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Shinya Ohno Lab studies how to build new nanoscale structures using atoms and molecules as basic building blocks, and investigates their physical properties. Its goal is to evaluate the properties of these structures in detail and, based on that knowledge, propose new devices. The lab uses a combination of various surface analysis techniques, such as scanning tunneling microscopy and photoelectron spectroscopy. The undergraduate reading-and-presentation seminar is run jointly with the Shudo Lab.
Yoshihiro Shimazu, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Shimazu Lab fabricates tiny electronic devices from superconductors and semiconductors and studies their properties. The devices range from a few micrometers to a few nanometers in size, and are made using microfabrication techniques such as photolithography and electron beam lithography. The lab examines their physical properties over a wide temperature range, from room temperature down to about 20 mK. In graduation research, students study the condensed matter physics of materials such as semiconductors thoroughly and carry out research centered on experiments.
