Takao Yasui

Associate Professor, Department of Biomolecular Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering, Nagoya University.

Appointed Assistant to ImPACT Project Manager from 2014 to 2019, JST PRESTO Researcher from 2015 to 2019, and

JST PRESTO Researcher again from 2019. His research theme is the development of novel biomolecule analysis methods

using nanospace. While aiming for quantitative analysis of exosomes, which are cancerous factors transported from

cancer cells to normal cells, we discovered a new technology to identify cancer from only 1 milliliter of urine using

nanowires. Craif Co., Ltd. was founded in May 2018 with his representative Onose to put the technology to practical use.
