| Research Abstract |
This study started in October 1, 1999 and ended in March 31, 2003. In the former half period (1999.10-2001.3), the supervisor group encouraged every investigator to challenge new research subjects focused on the single-cell molecular technology. In the latter half period (2001.4-2003.3), priority was given to several subjects that were regarded as typical single-cell research subjects. They were, for example, "The development of a single-cell experiment system using single-cell manipulation supporting robot" (A-group), "Single-cell bio-imaging using an electrochemical scanning microscope" (B-group), and "The construction of novel plasimids composed of stress response genes and a fluorescent protein reporter gene" (C-group). The expected results of these research subjects were thought to be the important basis of future developmental study on the creation of cells, tissues, and animals with novel functions. In order to discuss about such a prospect, a symposium entitled "From cells to the creation of tissues" was held on November 11-12, 2002. In summary, many experimental know-hows and study results on single-cells were accumulated. Their contribution to biotechnology and bioscience was remarkably great.
