Welcome to the Future of Bioengineering Lab at the University of Tokyo, where we push the boundaries of scientific discovery to revolutionize healthcare, environment, and bio-industrial processes.
Led by a team of world-renowned professors and researchers, our lab provides a vibrant and enriching environment for highly motivated students to develop their skills, forge innovative ideas, and transform these ideas into reality.
Graduate / Undergraduate students
If you are interested in working with us or visiting us, Please contact Sadao (sadaota@solab.rcast.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
We accept master students from Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the Univ. Tokyo.
We accept doctoral students from Department of Advanced Interdisciplinary Studies, the Univ. Tokyo.
We seek for highly motivated students in a broad range of engineering and sciences. There are many ways to financially support you but at the same time, I highly encourage and support talented international candidates to apply scholarships including
Postdoctoral fellow
Currently, we are seeking for highly motivated postdocs or prospective postdocs. Please contact Sadao (sadaota@solab.rcast.u-tokyo.ac.jp) with a cover letter, CV, previous research summary (1-3 pages). Funding situations may change, so email Sadao for inquiry. We offer an environment to expand her/his visions and potentials through the closest and deepest interaction with biologists, technologists, and information scientists.
Position 1: Synthetic biology, Material sciences, and Chemistry
<Prefer> Experiences in molecular cell biology, genetics, biochemistry, material synthesis, probe design and synthesis, or biophysics are preferred
<Require> Motivation and/or flexibility to work together with engineers and try the world’s first technologies to enable interdisciplinary and exploratory research
Position 2: Optical, Electrical, and Mechanical engineering
<Prefer> Optical scientists who want to develop truly meaningful and game-changing biotechnologies. Skills for constructing microscopes and those for signal processing are required.
<Prefer> Engineers who have strong background in microfluidics and/or MEMS, information science, or bioinformatics are also highly welcomed.
<Require> Motivation and/or flexibility to work together with biologists to share, understand, and solve the unmet need in biology and medicine
Please contact Sadao ASAP (earlier is better) if you are graduating PhD in coming years and interested in proposing research with us for postdoctoral study fellowships:
