The Institute of Medical Science (Tokyo-daigaku Ikagaku Kenkyujyo 東京大学医科学研究所) is an ancillary establishment of Tokyo University. It succeeded the Institute of Infectious Diseases (伝染病研究所, Densen-byo Kenkyu-jo) established in 1892 and is the foremost institute for medical and bioscience research in Japan.
A research hospital is attached to the institute. The former Institute of Public Health was located on the site.
1892: Dainihon Shiritu Eiseikai Fuzoku Densenbyo Kenkyujyo (Empire of Japan Private Sanitation Meeting Attachment Institute of Infectious Diseases) was established.1899: It became the National Institute of Infectious Diseases under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of the Interior.1914: The institute entered under the management of the Ministry of Education).1916: It becomes an ancillary establishment of Tokyo Imperial University.1967: Densenbyo Kenkyujyo (Institute of Infectious Diseases) was reorganized, then, Ikagaku Kenkyu-jyo (Institute of Medical Science) was established.Department of Microbiology and ImmunologyDepartment of Cancer BiologyDepartment of Basic Medical SciencesDonation LaboratoriesHuman Genome CenterCenter for Experimental MedicineThe Advanced Clinical Research CenterInternational Research Center for InfectiousPhotographic Laboratory (Prof. Jun-ichiro Inoue)Research HospitalAdministration Office Project Accounting OfficeDivision of Molecular of Therapy (Prof. Arinobu Tojo)Division of Medical Data Processing Network System (Prof. Tetsuo Shimizu)Executive Project Coordination OfficeDepartment of Advanced Medical Science (Prof. Naohide Yamashita)Division of Infectious Diseases (Prof. Aikichi Iwamoto)Division of Biochemistry (Associate Prof. Seiichi Takasaki)LibraryDirector's Office (Prof. Naohide Yamashita)Dean's Office (Prof. Motoharu Seiki)Division of Bioengineering (Prof. Hideaki Tahara)Division of Cellular Therapy (Associate Prof. Kohichiro Tsuji)Division of Cellular Therapy (Prof. Toshio Kitamura)Research HospitalLaboratory of Social Genome Sciences (Prof. Ichizo Kobayashi)Division of Fine Morphology (Prof. Eisaku Katayama)Laboratory of Molecular Genetics (Prof. Izumu Saito)Division of Oncology (Prof. Tadashi Yamamoto)Laboratory of Functional Genomics (Prof. Sumio Sugano)Division of Neuronal Network (Prof. Toshiya Manabe)Department of Infectious Disease Control (Division of Microbial Infection) (Prof. Tetsuro Matano)Department of Infectious Disease Control (Division of Viral Infection) (Associate Prof. Yasushi Kawaguchi)Department of Infectious Disease Control (Division of Bacterial Infection) (Associate Prof. Ichiro Nakagawa)B Common Laboratory (Prof. Chieko Kai)Culture Media Section (Prof. Jun-ichiro Inoue)Division of Molecular Pathology (Prof. Yoshinori Murakami)Division of Clinical Immunology (Prof. Chikao Morimoto)Laboratory of Cell Biology (Prof. Yoichiro Iwakura)Division of Host-Parasite Interaction (Prof. Hideo Iba)Division of Infectious Genetics (Prof. Kensuke Miyake)Radioisotope laboratories (Prof. IWAKURA Yoichiro Iwakura)Radioisotope laboratoriesDivision of Cell Processing (CERES) ((Visiting) Prof. Tsuneo Takahashi)Cord blood bankDiv.
