What Neutron Scattering Can Tell Us

Associate Professor Takatsugu Masuda

Neutrons, which are gas-neutral and have spin 1/2, are used as a quantum probe for observing the structure and dynamics of materials in various fields, including structural studies of light-element compounds (organics and Li compounds) that are difficult to see with X-rays, direct observation of atomic-level dynamics of materials, and studies of the spin structure of magnetic materials. We will introduce the researches in which neutrons excel, such as structural studies of light-element compounds (organic and Li compounds) that are difficult to see with X-rays, direct observation of atomic-level dynamics of materials, and studies of spin structures of magnetic materials.

Cancer genome analysis using next-generation genome analysis technology

Professor Minoru Suzuki

With the rapid spread of next generation sequencing technology, many attempts have been made to sequence and analyze cancer genomes, identify mutations, and select the optimal treatment for each patient based on the mutation patterns in daily practice. In addition, individual sequencing results are aggregated into a database, which is utilized as an information base for the creation of more effective therapies and anticancer drugs. In this talk, I would like to outline the current status and prospects of the application of the latest genomic technologies to cancer research.

Associate Professor Seiichi Takamatsu

Wearable Electronic Textile Manufacturing Technology

Associate Professor Seiichi Takamatsu

Wearable devices, such as wearable computers, and healthcare devices, such as electrocardiography and electroencephalography, require electronic textile technology in which clothes become electronic devices. We have developed a manufacturing technology to form electrical wiring and mount electronic components on cloth. We will introduce this manufacturing technology and applied devices such as wearable keyboards and bioelectrodes.
