ECSU hosted Professor Iwin Leenen ECSU had the priviledge of hosting Professor Iwin Leenen of National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Faculty of Psychology for a couple of weeks. Date: 26 January 2024 Category: Research Update Research Unit Embodied Cognitive Science Unit Share on: Related News Research Update G0 Cell Unit work on fission yeast cells in low-glucose may lead to new research into metabolic diseases Researchers at the OIST G0 Cell Unit have found that the actual glucose requirements of fission yeast cells and human cells are surprisingly similar and that the life span of fission yeast could be prolonged by glucose starvation, an effect that had been observed in higher organisms like human beings. Research Update Two-photon Microscopy: A powerful tool to observe neuronal activity Research Update New weather radar test conducted at OIST For the next month, JAXA and NICT will use parts of the OIST Onna campus in experiments which may lead to advances in weather forecasting and flood prediction. Research Update Paper by Dr. Hiroaki Kitano published in Nature Chemical Biology A paper by Dr. Hiroaki Kitano, Principal Investigator of the Open Biology Unit, was published in Nature Chemical Biology. The paper discusses a new type of big science emerging that involves knowledge integration and collaboration among small sciences. Research Update OIST Researchers Contribute to Findings Behind Mealybug Symbiosis A research team including OIST's Prof. Noriyuki Satoh has discovered that mealybugs have a tripartite symbiosis dependent on genes from multiple diverse bacteria.
