額田医学生物学研究所

Established in 1939, the Nukada Institute for Medical Biology stands as a testament to the vision of one man. He was Nukada Tsune, brother of Nukada Toyo, co-founder of Toho University. This institute, a public interest incorporated foundation, delves into the fascinating realms of medicine and biology. Right here at the Nukada Institute for Medical Biology, research thrives. The institute’s sprawling grounds cover an impressive 7,000 square meters. The Nukada Institute for Medical Biology is known for its affiliated hospital. This hospital specializes in neurological disorders. It is a prominent medical institution in the area. While the lush landscapes that once graced this area have faded with time, remnants of history still linger. The nearby former Kamo Beach, now part of Chiba’s Kamo Beach area, once served as a sanctuary. It has been a designated conservation area since the Meiji era. The Nukada Institute for Medical Biology holds a unique connection to this area’s past. Nukada Tsune himself witnessed the area during his time studying in Germany. He drew inspiration from a sanatorium in Berlin. That sanatorium served as a model for the medical facilities we see here today. The institute stands on a hill overlooking Tokyo Bay. Nearby, you can find traces of another historical figure. It’s the former site of the Kamigakari Denshintai Barracks. This was opened by Kamigakari Senshi, who also established the famous Kamigakari Shrine batting center in Tokyo’s Asakusa district. The Nukada Institute for Medical Biology remains a beacon of scientific exploration.
