[Important Notice: 重要なお知らせ]

We will move to new department, "Department of Medical and Robotic Engineering Design", which will start in fiscal 2023.

上村研究室は2023年4月より、新設される先進工学部機能デザイン工学科の所属になります。

We design various functional polymer-based nanomaterials for "materials initiated biology", including mechanobiology, mechano/thermo-genetics, and liquid-liquid phase separation research. The research in our laboratory is motivated by a desire to develop novel analytical or manipulation methods for discovering unknown biological phenomena and exploring innovative nanomedicine by using polymer nanomaterials. We are also committed to training a new generation of material and biomedical researchers and engineers. We believe a stimulating environment of our laboratory promotes the growth of creativity and autonomy of students.
