There is a wide range of issues associated with food and health from familiar problems to global issues. In this group seminar, each student group survey food and health issues, and propose the solution idea to solve a particular issue. Specifically, each group will first identify “issues related to food and health” and investigate the social, scientific, and business backgrounds related to the issues. Then, based on the research, they will put together a proposal for solving the issue, including elements of research, social practice, and business value, and make a group presentation. In addition to research and discussion by student groups, the group seminar will include excursions to related companies and research institutes, and business thinking training.

“Food” and “Health,” two issues central to human existence, are inseparable in their relationship. Food-related health problems and lifestyle-related diseases, threats to food security, and the increasing cost of medical care are just some of the many challenges society now faces. In this course, students will study the scientific fundamentals to understand such Food and Health issues, especially focusing on “Relationship between Food and Health”, “Health Security”, and “Food Security”. The global view of “Health and Food related issues” will be given by the instructors from University of Tsukuba as well as University of Bordeaux and National Taiwan University. In addition, to understand “Research Ethics”, we will introduce the learning material, GLidD, in the course. 1. General Overview: What Is Agro-Biomedical Science? (Yoshito Kumagai,

Soil is a fundamental part that supports the natural ecosystems. This lecture deal with basic soil concept, basic soil chemistry, soil functions in ecosystems, soil genesis and classification, soil degradation and conservation, and the rerationships between global environmental issues and soil. In this lecture, we will have brainstorming and group discussions on soil issues. Soils are the basis for the terrestrial ecosystems, and often treated nowadays as the resource like water and minerals. In this lecture, soils and soil environments are explained including their genesis and taxonomical point of view.
