“Challenging the Eradication of Chronic Diseases”
Members who share the sentiment of “Challenging the Eradication of Chronic Diseases” unite, collaborating across research departments, with industry partnerships, and with other universities.
Applying the independently developed cell targeting technology (Biozipcode), the team is working on the redevelopment of existing drugs, development of new drugs, and medical materials for tissue regeneration to address diabetes, cancer, autoimmune diseases, multiple organ failure, and conditions resistant to conventional surgical and pharmacological treatments.

Laboratory
Applying the unique technology developed by Professor Kojima, efforts include the redevelopment of existing drugs, development of new drugs, and etc.
Research is conducted daily to understand why diseases do not heal, find answers, and develop cures rather than treatments.
Introducing the research course and related members. Detailed information on each member’s expertise, research content, and achievements is provided.
Research commissioned by Biozipcode Inc. and conducted by Shiga University of Medical Science faculty. Expenses are covered by the commissioning party.
A list of papers published by the lab is available. Research outcomes led by Special Professor Kojima in diabetes and regenerative medicine are presented.
Directions to Shiga University of Medical Science and the lab. Note: JR Seta Station does not accommodate express trains. Please use rapid or local trains.
Frequently asked questions about the Department of Regenerative Medicine, diabetes stem cells, and research content are compiled.
