Research

In our body, dynamic and complicated interactions of numerous biomolecules determine biological phenomena. Using functional nanoparticles as a tool, we develop a detection/visualizing method of these interactions. Integrating with the data analysis that considers living body as a system, we aim to develop a novel diagnostic platform enabling early diagnostics, precision medicines, and efficient drug development. Chemical Engineering is a basic principle of our group, to which various medical or biological knowledge are integrated systematically.

 

 

Example of the projects include;

  • Fascile and sensitive detection of biomarkers using photofunctional nanoparticles
  • One-pod detection of multiple biomarkers using photofunctional nanoparticles
  • Constraction of a diagnostic model based on the expression profile of multiple biomarkers
