The Micro/Bio/Nanofluidics Unit at OIST studies in depth the physics behind liquid-liquid impact with varied temperatures to create non-spherical particles for use in industry.

Refined techniques in brain activity analysis in zebra finches yields interesting results about how vocalization works.

Computer simulations at OIST suggest new applications in industry by harnessing active microscopic particles in fluids.

On December 12-13th, OIST hosted a joint symposium with guest professors from the University of Tokyo.

Recent collaborations between scientists in Okinawa and Australia are helping to spur genomic research of the Crown of Thorns starfish, a threat to coral reefs across the Indo-Pacific region.

OIST’s Mathematical Soft Matter Unit explores the interaction of energies at the crossroads between physics and mathematics.

OIST becomes part of Japan’s national effort to map the Brain

OIST welcomes Ye Zhang to lead the Bioinspired Soft Matter Unit. She hopes to create purely chemical systems that mimic biological structures.

Professor Robert Sinclair proposes that simple explanations can be found for complex systems in nature by using rational numbers

A new study of lens morphology through cell proliferation is helping to understand how complex biological structures form.

In a cooperative effort with the local fishermen, OIST researchers are studying the population dynamics of Crown-of-Thorns Starfish.
