To achieve these goals, we are developing: (1) technologies for discovering microbes and various genetic resources; (2) technologies to analyze and search for genetic information at high speed; (3) technologies for the production of useful materials based on genetically modified plants, microbes, and animals; and (4) technologies for producing protein- and nucleic acid-related biological chemicals.Research activities at the Bioproduction Research Institute Development of technologies for the discovery of new microbes, animals, and plantsR&D of genetic information analysis technologies for the era of massive genome informationDevelopment of biological materials such as biological chemicals, and R&D of application technologies for these materialsR&D of technologies for the production of useful materials based on genetically modified plants and microbesDevelopment of new bioprocessesDevelopment of biomass application technologiesProduction of drug feedstocks and functional materialsDevelopment of imaging and detection technologies【 Director 】 Youichi Kamagata【 Deputy Director 】Isao Yumoto【 Deputy Director 】Satoru Ohgiya 【 Outline 】Health Research InstituteContributing to the realization of a sustainable society by scientifically understanding and elucidating human healthURL : http://unit.aist.go.jp/hri/en/E-mail : hri-webmaster-ml@aist.go.jp2217-14 Hayashi-cho, Takamatsu, Kagawa 761-0395, JapanTel: (087) 869-3526 / Fax: (087) 869-4178 (from outside Japan: Tel: +81-87-869-3526 / Fax: +81-87-869-4178)【 Research Bases 】 AIST Shikoku, AIST KansaiEnjoying longevity in health is a key issue for achieving a sustainable society. “Health” means the state that we are sound enough mentally as well as physically to constructively participate in social activities. In order to create such a society, we intensively perform the following scientific and technological researches.・ Advanced technologies for prediction and diagnosis of diseases and the development of their measurement systems・ Technologies to design and synthesize functional compounds based on analysis of cell functions・ Technologies to regenerate tissue and cell functions and to create alternative devices・ Technologies to assist daily living based on measurement and analysis of the body’s physiological and cognitive functions・ Technologies to evaluate and eliminate health risks in living and working environmentsWe aim to create a new health industry and an interdisciplinary science field of health through co-operative and integrated works with related research areas of AIST.Research in Health Research Institute【 Director 】 Yasukazu Yoshida【 Deputy Director 】Yoshiro Tatsu 【 Outline 】��19Organization and OutlineLife Science and Biotechnology
