The Earth-Life Science Institute spans two buildings in TokyoTech with various equipment:
ELSI-1 (Ishikawadai Campus Bldg.No.7)
ELSI-2 (Ishikawadai Campus Bldg.No.8)
Want to purify a protein?Go for it.
Want to measure the minor isotopes of sulfur? Go for it.
Want to conduct high pressure hydrothermal reactor experiments with prebiotic or modern relevance? Sure thing!
We strive to create an open environment where given a research question, we can find the answer.
ELSI has a variety of experimental facilities for research in chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, mineralogy, isotope ratio determination, and more. Let's find out how life works today, how it might have in the past, and how it may have first formed.
