Medical RIs have been used for body function and tumor diagnosis and therapy. Traditionally, the RIs are taken or distributed by metabolic reactions. Recently, so-called radioimmunotherapy (RIT) has been developing which can directly destroy cancer "cells." This technique has been realized with combination of medicine (finding cancer cells' properties), pharmacy (how to combine an RI to drug) and physics (RIs production which never exists on earth) fields.

We are working on accelerator experiments and data analysis to realize production technology for useful radioisotopes (RIs) used in medicine and other applications. In particular, we are conducting research focusing on the production of radioactive copper and drug transport systems, which are promising in theranostics, which is said to be the ultimate individual improvement.
