This course is mainly focused on Structural Biology to aim in the understanding of the biological significances of "structure" in molecules.
In this lecture, students who have never conducted molecular biology experiments will be explained from the handling of laboratory equipment so that they can start research smoothly. In addition to simply explaining the experimental methods, I will also lecture my own research experiences and failures. Originally, research is to acquire actual knowledge and skills by being scolded by faculty members and seniors in the laboratory, and it takes a long time. In my domestic and international research life, there was no class to transfer systematic techniques and know-how, and I have never heard of such a story. Therefore, many students are making similar mistakes. In this class, I will make use of such experiences, incorporate my own research experiences and failures, and generously convey information useful for efficient research of students.
The metabolome analysis training aims to provide a systematic understanding of the actual state of metabolome research through lectures and training on (1) analytical chemistry techniques, (2) intracellular metabolic substance measurement methods (metabolite extraction methods, metabolic substance measurement methods using capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry (CE-MS)), and (3) metabolome data analysis. Students learn about the principles and measurement methods of the most advanced metabolome measurement technique, comprehensively measure metabolic substances in the cells of real samples, and analyze and consider dynamic metabolic changes.
In addition to genome, transcriptome and proteome, metabolomic information is necessary to comprehensively understand biological phenomenon. In this course, students learn metabolites, metabolism, metabolomics technologies and application of metabolomics to plant and cancer biology.
In addition to the knowledge learned in the Genome Molecular Biology 1 class, Genome Molecular Biology 2 class will provide more detailed gene regulation topics such as DNA replication, RNA transcription and RNA processing. Furthermore, this class will outline phylogenetic analysis and molecular evolution.
Genome science is one of the leading subjects in the 21st century. For students who major in life science, the filed of genome science is very necessary to understand the modern biology. By taking this class (Genome Molecular Biology 1) as well as Genome Molecular Biology 2 class (autumn semester), you can understand the genome biology from basics to frontiers. The required book for this class is the 4th edition textbook called Genome 4 (ed. by T. A. Brown).
Proteins are important molecules involved in many biological phenomena. Proteomics, which measures the types and amounts of proteins expressed in cells, is an important method for advancing life science. In this lecture, I will give an overview of proteomics from basic techniques to state-of-the-art topics by discussing research cases.(Some classes will be offered online.)
"Gut microbiota control our behavior! "
"It's actually the bacteria in our gut that makes us fat!"
The truth is that all of this sounds like a lie. It is estimated that there are as many, if not more, intestinal bacteria living in our intestinal tract, than there are cells in our entire body. Gut microbiota has various effects on our body by crosstalk with host intestinal neurons, endocrine cells, and immune cells. In this lecture, the functions of the gut microbiota that contribute to the maintenance and promotion of host health will be outlined. In addition, the roles of the gut microbiota in the development of the intestinal immune system, various diseases caused by imbalances in the gut microbiota, and methods of disease prevention and treatment through appropriate control of gut microbiota will be explained, including the latest findings.

Approximately three-fourths of the Nobel prize in Physiology or Medicine and half of the Nobel prize in Chemistry have been related to Life Science-Cell Biology. There has been no such academic domain. I think that the reason why Cell Biology is so special is because it has been worked as a driving force to support human society and health. In this class, I am planing to explain some extremely important and epoch making discoveries from the recent 30-years Nobel prize (especially, if it is performed by Japanese scientists).

A recent advance in brain measurement and analysis techniques has enabled to read human brain information non-invasively, to uncover brain functions, and to link a brain and a machine/computer. In this class, we will study neural mechanisms of information transmission by action potentials and brain measurement techniques (physical principles, advantages and disadvantages, analysis algorithms) such as EEG, MEG, and MRI. Furthermore, we will focus on recent technologies such as brain machine/computer interfaces and brain decoding.
