20 April 2024 20 April 2024: Dr Christophe Pin joins the LMIQT Unit Welcome to Dr Christophe Pin who recently joined us from Hokkaido University. Research Unit Light-Matter Interactions for Quantum Technologies Unit 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. Institutional News Come Back Soon! Nearly 22,000 people from all walks of life have passed through the OIST's doors since April 2012. Institutional News OIST Science Film Show on 29 March, 2011 Research Update OIST Science Film Show On Tuesday, March 29th, the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Promotion Corporation held a "Science Film Show" at Seaside House for junior high and high school students. Institutional News Summary of International Symposium & Workshop on R&D Cluster Development Released OIST held an innovative event called the "International Symposium and Workshop: Toward the Development of an R&D Cluster in Okinawa" at the end of last year, and a full summary of the major points and recommendations made is now available for download from the International Symposium and Workshop Event Report page.
