ABOUT OUR LABORATORY
Established in April 2023 at the Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, our laboratory is led by Professor Yoshito Tanaka. We aim to create innovative foundational technologies that will revolutionize a wide range of fields, from future medical applications such as nano-surgery, drug delivery, and health management, to quantum and space science and technology. Our approach involves understanding and controlling the mechanical interactions between precisely designed artificial nanostructures and light. Through this, we seek to create unique light-driven actuators that mimic the excellent functions of living organisms, such as motility and autonomy. We are committed to pursuing "interesting" research without being constrained by existing frameworks, innovating both science and technology.
