  • Welcome to Kashiwa Campus the University of Tokyo
    Welcome to Kashiwa Campus The University of Tokyo Adventures in Knowledge Kashiwa Campus is the newest of the three main campuses of The University of Tokyo in addition to campuses at Hongo and Komaba, and was established with the vision of building a new community with a strong interdisciplinary and international character that can respond to the dynamic scientific and educational needs of the 21st Century. Hongo Campus, the core of traditional academic activities at The University of Tokyo since its foundation in 1877, and Komaba Campus, focusing on undergraduate studies and building interdisciplinary links between established fields of study for over 60 years, have longstanding academic traditions. Kashiwa Campus recently joined this family and aims at a fundamental reorganization of the structure of traditional academic disciplines, reconsidering the framework of how knowledge is created and organized. Under the slogan of “Adventures in Knowledge”, Kashiwa Campus has started various new initiatives. The Graduate School of Frontier Sciences (GSFS) consists of three divisions each with relevant departments: Division of Transdisciplinary Sciences, Division of Biosciences, and Division of Environmental Studies. GSFS aims to create new frontiers of academic fields. The Institute for Solid State Physics (ISSP) is exploring a wide variety of phenomena exhibited by various materials from the viewpoint of basic science using state-of-art experimental facilities and techniques. Materials under study include those forming the basis of today's high-tech society and its future development. The Institute for Cosmic Ray Research (ICRR) is pursuing the origins of the universe and matter through research on cosmic rays. The Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute (AORI) not only promotes basic research on the ocean and atmosphere, but also contributes to society through deepening ocean and climate science.

  • IPMU Brochure
    Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe Todai Institutes for Advanced Study The University of Tokyo The universe is written in the language of mathematics These words of Galileo, who lived at the dawn of cosmology in the 16 to 17th century, give an important foresight to the strategy we must take at IPMU to answer big questions we face today. IPMU addresses deep mysteries of the universe by integrating the forefront knowledge of physics and mathematics. New approaches under new strategies open new possibilities. World Premier International Research Center Initiative Our universe is full of mystery. “Everything is made of atoms” had been the basic concept that had dominated our view of the universe for the past two centuries. The universe was made of atoms that obeyed quantum mechanics, and all gravity phenomena on earth and in the solar system were well-described by Einstein’s general relativity. But the 1998 discovery that “the universe is expanding with an accelerated speed” has changed our entire understanding. Many researchers now believe that mysterious dark energy must be distributed across the universe and the cause of this acceleration. Atoms, human, solar system The universe is expanding with an accelerated speed. ©NASA, ESA, J. Blakeslee and H. Ford (JHU) It has been known for some time that the galaxies must contain large amount of invisible dark matter in order to hold their spiral shapes. But we do not know what they are. We knew only 5% of the universe! Atoms: 4.4% Stars: 0.5% Neutrinos: 0.1%? Dark Matter: 22% Does not emit light and invisible to us, but needed for holding the galaxies together.

In response, the 21st century is being called the age of life innovation - the age of applied life science. However, as biological phenomena are complex, they cannot be understood or applied simply by parsing them into numerous constituent molecules and fundamental processes and simplifying them in order to identify principles. Rather, it will be necessary to analyze complex biological phenomena as a whole, clarify the numerous elements that are involved and their relationships, and determine methods for their regulation. This is the kind of technological innovation that will be imperative in leading the way in the age of life innovation. The rapid advances in technologies for DNA sequencing, omics analysis, and imaging in recent years have enabled comprehensive analysis of a wide variety of biological macromolecules for the first time, and paved the way for the analysis of complex biological phenomena as a whole. Moreover, massive data analysis of biological molecules, which was simultaneously realized, was found to be the focal point of life innovation. In the age of information-oriented life science, the innovation of information technology will be essential for understanding the numerous elements that are involved in biological phenomena and their interrelationships, as well as for examining their regulation.
