Activities
We invited Professor Takanori Kanazawa from Tokushima University as the lecturer and held a study session on "Intracerebral Nucleic Acid Transport Methods."
Members of this area held a "Study session on intracerebral nucleic acid transport methods" (online).
The lecturer for the session was Professor Kanazawa Takanori from the Department of Pharmacology, Graduate School of Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Tokushima University, who gave a lecture titled "Non-invasive brain and spinal drug delivery technology: Nose-to-Brain delivery" followed by a Q&A session.
In addition to members of the area, students participating in the research also participated, making a total of 43 people.
We learned a lot. Thank you very much, Professor Kanazawa.
Dr. Tsukakoshi gave a lecture at the Life and Environmental Science Seminar (co-hosted by "Aptamer Biology"), Department of Multidisciplinary Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo.
Tsukagoshi (area representative, C01 research representative) gave a lecture on aptamer development at the 221st Life and Environmental Science Seminar, Department of Multidisciplinary Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo.
I learned a lot from my lecture, and hope that it will be a foundation for some research.
I would like to thank Professor Yoshimoto for providing us with the opportunity for a valuable discussion among aptamer researchers. I would also like to thank everyone who attended.
Dr. Tsukakoshi will give a lecture at the University of Tokyo Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Multidisciplinary Sciences Life and Environmental Science Seminar (co-hosted by "Aptamer Biology") (Thursday, December 5, 2024, 15:00-17:00)
Dr. Tsukakoshi (area representative, C01 research representative) will give a lecture on aptamer development at the 221st Life and Environmental Science Seminar, Department of Multi-Disciplinary Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo.

A joint study session was held between the "Meta-Aggregate" area and the Gakuhen B External Seminar, and Dr. Tsukakoshi, the area representative, gave a speech.
We held a joint study session with Academic Transformation Research B "Meta-Aggregate (Representative: Professor Murakami Kazuma, Kyoto University)".
From Creation of Aptameric biology, Dr. Tsukakoshi (Area Representative, C01 Research Representative) gave a lecture on the overview of the area and the results of aptamer development research to date. In addition, Dr. Takahiro Nakayama from Meta-Aggregate gave a lecture on the basics and cutting-edge research of analytical techniques using high-speed AFM.
The discussion continued right up until the end of the Q&A session, making it a very productive meeting.
Thank you very much to everyone who participated and to everyone in the Meta-Aggregate field.
