The major diseases studied in our department include asthma/COPD, lung cancer, respiratory infectious diseases, interstitial lung diseases, pulmonary hypertension, sleep apnea and high-altitude pulmonary edema that mainly occurs in the highland of Shinshu area in Japan.・The molecular genetics in high-altitude adaptation and acclimatization.・Studying various drugs on prevention of group 3 pulmonary hypertension by using rat model.・The pathophysiology of IgG4-related respiratory disease・Seeking the optimal treatment for non-tuberculous mycobacteria infection.・Development of novel examination techniques in bronchoscope field.・Research on the pathophysiology of COPDRespiratory, infectious and allergy diseases are increasingly important, which is expected to occupy 4 diseases (COPD, pneumonia, lung cancer, and HIV infection) among the world’s 10 leading causes of death in 2030. There are a lot of unsolved questions in many refractory diseases. However, accumulation of research results will provide possibilities to overwhelm these diseases and create a bright future. You can choose career plans with acquisition of respiratory medicine, infectious disease and allergy disease specialist. If you hope to further study in domestic or overseas, we will pro-vide expert advice professionally with consultant correspondingly.

During training, students and residents learn to act as valuable members of the medical team. In clinical practice, we make the medical environment bright and provide a sense of accomplishment.The division of gastroenterology is divided into the liver, stomach and intestine, and biliary tract and pancreas teams. Each team provides specialized medical treatment to people in need. The division of nephrology concentrates on not only kidney transplantation, but also the treatment of nephritis and blood purification therapy. The division of hematology provides medical care mainly related to bone marrow transplantation. Together, we perform research in key fields that are decided by each study group. We strive to share our ideas, skills, and research findings to the world.▶Divisions:1. Gastroenterology: Liver2. Gastroenterology: Stomach and intestine3.
