38Functional Polymer ScienceYoshiro OgomaAssociate ProfessorUtilizing biological materials in engineering to create biosensors and new materialsDepartment of Chemistry and MaterialsI am working to develop a biosensor capable of easily identifying the appropriate amount of medicine to administer by affixing CYP, which plays a central role in the liver, to an electrode. Diatoms, a type of phytoplankton, use a protein called silaffin to form their silica shells. My lab has succeeded in using a polymer that imitates that structure to create new silica materials in numerous forms.Associate Professor Ogoma received his Doctorate of Science at Tohoku University after completing the textile research course at Shinshu University Graduate School. He took his current position in 1999. From 2001 to 2002, he studied at the University of Cologne in Germany as an exchange student. His specialty is biopolymer engineering.By recombining countless biological molecules to apply biological materials to engineering, it becomes possible to develop new materials based on new principles.Outlook for researchAlthough many graduates are employed in the areas of chemical materials and medical equipment, I strive to give them an education that can be applied to companies in all elds.Outlook for students after graduationFormation of silica in numerous shapes by adding polymers (an example use in new materials)A CYP immobilized electrode that demonstrates a dierent electrical current and voltage response depending on the type of chemical (an example use as a biosensor)-1.00E-07-5.00E-080.00E+005.00E-081.00E-07-0.7-0.5-0.3-0.10.1Current(A)Potential(V)基質なしリドカインテストステロンニフェジピンlidocainesubstrate-freetestosteronenifedipineFunctional Polymer ScienceToshiki KoyamaAssociate ProfessorDeveloping thin, lightweight wearable fuel cells to supply power to robots and power suitsDepartment of Chemistry and MaterialsI am pursuing research into functional polymer membranes and nanofiber materials such as vaporization membranes for micro fuel cells that use neat methanol as fuel, self-humidification layers for H2/O2 fuel cells, carbon nano-paper as nano-porous gas diffusion electrodes, and nickel nano-paper for alkaline fuel cells using thin electrolyte membranes.Associate Professor Koyama took his current position in 1998 after serving in the Faculty of Textile Science and Technology at Shinshu University as an assistant professor and senior assistant professor. His area of research is physical chemistry related to the development of functional polymer materials and devices inspired by the movement of electrons and ions in living organisms.My lab is working to develop materials that will make possible more compact fuel cells that are both thinner and lighter. Wearer fuel cells would have numerous applications, including as power supplies for robots and power suits.Outlook for researchMany graduates go on to complete master's programs, after which they usually nd employment at companies involved with chemical materials, organic electronic materials, and electronic devices.Outlook for students after graduationA student uses an evaluation device to check the power-generating properties of fuel cells built with materials developed in the lab.This exible fuel cell with a thickness of 4 mm was formed from an array of six cells.We developed this carbon nanoweb (CNW) electrode with a diameter of 150 nm.
