Environmental exposures and children’s health outcomes are measured.The protocol of JECS; The babies will be followed-up until they reach 13 years old, and JECS investigate the relationship between environmental exposures and children’s health outcomes. Paternity testingExample of drug analysis from blood using LC-QTOF(detection of paroxetine)Specific mutation found in sudden death cases among patients administered psychotropic drug therapy.In addition to JECS, our research topics include:• Experimental and epidemiological studies on the impacts of chemical exposures on health (for example, the relationships between heavy metals, trace elements, and neurodevelopment)• Research contributing to the health management of workers (for example, the associations between occupational exposure, occupational stress, and health status)• Epidemiological studies using large-scale data such as claims data and health registry dataWe will be able to investigate a wide range of environmental factors that could affectchildren’s health and development. The study products will be used to develop betterchemicalrisk management strategies. The Japanese Government will also use theinformation to help plan health policy and services for future children.After graduation, you will be able to become• a public health physician or an occupational physician• an obstetrician and gynecologist or an obstetrician and gynecologist• an academic or a researcher• a physician who applies research findings in clinical settings.• We are conducting research on efficient DNA extraction methods andnew DNA analysis methods so that reliable identification can be madeeven from degraded samples.• We are also researching the evaluation of blood concentrations in casesof death due to drugs and poisons,the relationship between theseconcentrations and drug-metabolizing enzyme polymorphisms, and thedevelopment of new methods for detecting toxic substances.• DNA typing of degraded DNA samples• Relationship between sudden death of elderly people and amyloidosis• Molecular analysis in sudden death cases among patients administered• Development of systematic analysis methods for poisoning substances• Search for markers useful for investigating causes of death • Forensic physician• Forensic technician engaged in DNA analysis or drug analysisThe Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS)~The present for future children~It started in January 2011. The Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS) is anational birth cohort study in Japan. It is commissioned by the Japanese Government.It is the largest birth cohort study first ever conducted in Japan that investigate therelationship between a wide range of environmental factors and children’s health anddevelopment. A decision was made to extend the follow-up period until the age of 40years, and the detailed plan is under review.responsibility forMotherInfantFatherOthersG1927A(G643S)Evidence-based practice in medicine and public health Legal medicine fills a social responsibility throughdetermining the cause of death and identifying thedeceased.
