On 8 December 2022, DLX Design Lab, #UTokyo_IIS, The University of Tokyo (UTokyo) and The Division of Industrial Design (DID) under the College of Design and Engineering as well as the Tropical Marine Science Institute (TMSI) of the National University of Singapore (NUS) released “Coral Rescue - Conserve Together”.

Researchers at #UTokyo_IIS, use artificial intelligence to help interpret data generated by material science spectroscopy experiments, which can aid in the development of new drugs and organic conductors.

Japan is one of the world leaders in materials science—an area of research that integrates knowledge from various disciplines, including chemistry and physics, to design, develop, and evaluate new materials that contribute to society. The country has made invaluable contributions toward photocatalysts, carbon fibers, carbon nanotubes, and blue LEDs, all of which are widely used materials in our daily lives. Our #UTokyo_IIS　has also contributed significantly toward such developments.

Our lives are surrounded by several electronic devices, such as smartphones, PCs, and dazzling digital billboards. Most people do not question the conventional school of thought that such devices are meant to be rigid. However, Associate Professor Naoji Matsuhisa of #UTokyo_IIS has challenged this thought and seeks to develop soft and stretchable electronics.

Researchers at #UTokyo_IIS, have developed a desktop charger with voltages high enough to replenish the electric charge on N95 and surgical masks, which is required for effective use.

Researchers from #UTokyo_IIS find a new approach to successfully identify areas at risk of flooding that can be missed by historical hazard maps.

Researchers at #UTokyo_IIS use isotopically purified graphite to study the phenomenon of heat flowing like a fluid, which can lead to new heat-sink devices for electronics.

Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, find that a deep-learning model that simultaneously learns to classify satellite data as rain/no-rain while determining rain intensity outperforms other models.

The One Health, One World Organization (OHOW) held The 1st International Symposium on One Health, One World in Pattaya, Thailand from December 8 to 10, 2022.
