In addition to "research" and "medical treatment" in pathological diagnosis, the Group conducts various activities, including the Tsukuba Human Tissue Diagnostic Center (THDC), which supports pathological diagnosis in the region, and the Tsukuba Human Tissue Biobank Center Basic Research Support Section (T-PASS), which provides basic research support.
Graduate school students and pathologists recruiting!
If you are interested in our group or have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us using the contact form or by phone.
We carefully observe heterogeneity, background lesions, microscopic lesions, early stage lesions, and progression process of cancer with the eyes of a pathologist, and then compare them with genetic data of many cancer cell lines in our laboratory (41 lung adenocarcinoma cell lines alone, 15 small cell carcinoma lines, etc.), histological features of Xenograft tumor, drug sensitivity We are also analyzing the molecules involved in the development and progression of cancer based on pathological observations and accumulated experience.
In addition to pathologists from the Department of Pathology at the University of Tsukuba Hospital, a team of skilled pathologists from the core hospitals in Ibaraki Prefecture will work together to provide diagnostic services and student education at THDC and the University of Tsukuba Hospital!
We transport specimens, prepare pathology specimens, and perform pathology diagnosis for the main clinical training hospitals of the University of Tsukuba Hospital. Pathological autopsies can also be performed at our center if the remains are transported to the University of Tsukuba Hospital. We also provide on-site CPC (Clinical Pathology Review Meeting) after autopsy.
With the aim of stimulating medical research at the University of Tsukuba, we will provide research support using FFPE and other histopathological materials for research within the University of Tsukuba, joint research, and research in extramural academia, etc. for a fee.
When conducting clinical research, it is usually necessary to provide written or verbal explanation and consent.However, according to the interpretation based on the national guidelines, it is not necessary to obtain consent directly from each subject patient in the case of observational clinical research using only information such as medical information without any invasion or intervention on the patient. However, it is necessary to disclose information about the conduct of the research and to guarantee an opportunity for refusal, which is called "opt-out".
If you do not wish your data to be used for research purposes, please inform the respective research staff.
