Associate ProfessorControlling the reactivity of highly active species remains one of the most significant challenges in synthetic organic chemistry. My research focuses on utilizing highly unstable carbon-species known as ‘Carbenes' for pharmaceutical synthesis. These reactive species typically have lifetimes of less than one second and cannot be isolated, making their properties accessible through computational theoretical analysis.

ProfessorI am conducting research on new modalities, such as drug delivery systems (DDS), that serve as delivery carriers for nucleic acid therapeutics like mRNA and immune checkpoint inhibitors, with the goal of efficiently delivering them to tumors and maximizing their therapeutic effects. I also investigate the mechanisms of adverse events associated with these new modalities and explore combination therapies.
Recent Topics of Interests:
When a drug is administered, it normally reaches diseased sites to exert its therapeutic effects. However, in reality, there are many regions in the body where drugs fail to reach. These pharmacologically unexplored areas still receive nutrients and sustain living cells. I aim to uncover the body’s remarkable internal delivery systems and develop DDS technologies capable of delivering drugs to any target site.

Associate ProfessorWhat do we mean by 'responsible' and what are the 'mechanisms' for generating research and innovation in a responsible manner, if sustainable mechanisms for developing and embedding responsible research and innovation can be developed? My research aims to find ways to make them happen, especially in the field of biomedicine/life sciences in Japan.
Recent Topics of Interests:
A particular focus at present is the design of sustainable mechanisms for the development and fostering of responsible research and innovation in Japan. Two aspects of particular emphasis are:
1) From 'research integrity' and 'research ethics' perspective, focusing on the systems, mechanisms and education that are appropriate and lead to excellent research for both researchers and society, and
2) From the perspective of the concept and concrete ways of patient & public involvement in research, which serves as one of the mechanisms enabling responsible research and innovation, it is essential to explore how these practices can be embedded in the culture of the research community. This entails establishing a mechanism that is appropriately integrated into the culture of the research community.

Professor / Vice DirectorI aim to advance medical care by elucidating, from a neural circuit perspective, how the ‘anxiety' that we all experience influences the mind and how eating disorders affect brain function. I also investigate the brain characteristics of individuals prone to anxiety or eating disorders and examine how treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy can alleviate brain dysfunction.
Recent Topics of Interest:
Neuroimaging research on anxiety and eating disorders, along with the development of resilience education programs based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

Assistant ProfessorI aspire to become a physician-scientist who integrates clinical expertise, such as joint replacement surgery, with basic research in chronic inflammation and immunology. My research focuses on conditions including hip and knee osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis of femoral head, and rheumatoid arthritis. Specifically, I aim to elucidate the role of the immune system in osteoarthritis and translate this knowledge into a better understanding and improved treatment of the disease.
Recent Topics of Interest:
Elucidating the immunopathogenesis of osteoarthritis

Associate ProfessorI explore the diverse structures of algebraic linear differential equations through geometric, algebraic, and combinatorial lenses, employing representation theory methods.
While traditionally rooted in differential and integral calculus, I elucidate the unique characteristics of each equation by creating ‘figures’ and ‘diagrams.’ These figures offer insights into the multifaceted nature of differential equations.
Recent Topics of Interests:
My interest lies in the deformation theory for singularities of differential equations, exploring the correlation between the geometric structure of their moduli spaces and their representation theoretic interpretation.
