The Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere Research is engaged in innovative efforts in a wide variety of research fields with the aim of realizing a sustainable future.
The research systems that support the foundations of the science of the biosphere are at the forefront of the pursuit of the symbiosis between nature and humans, delving deeply into important themes such as the environment, energy, materials, and space. Here we introduce the missions and activities of each research division.

Division of Diagnostics and Control of the Humanosphere

In addition to eight research fields that focus on the understanding of various phenomena occurring in the biosphere and the analysis and control of their mechanisms, we have also established inter-disciplinary research fields with foreign and domestic visiting scientists.

Laboratory of Material Biology

Laboratory of Biomass Conversion

Laboratory of Metabolic Science of Forest Plants and Microorganisms

Laboratory of Plant Gene Expression

Laboratory of Atmospheric Sensing and Diagnosis

Laboratory of Atmospheric Environmental Information Analysis
