Division of Bioengineering

We are mainly focusing on bioengineering analysis of the structure and function of living systems in nano- to macro-scopic multiple scales, and their applications to biological and medical sciences, clinical medicine, applied mechanics and engineering. Our major research and educational fields are as follows:

• structural analysis, biophysics, and biomechanics of biological materials and tissues
• analysis of the principles and mechanisms of biological functions and structure-function relationships in bio-machinery unit
• model analysis of living systems and systemic analysis of human body motion
• biomedical and biophysical measurements, biomedical photonics, and medical informatics
• developments of biomaterials, artificial organs, and tissue engineering technologies
• developments of optimal design methods and techniques based on biominetics.
