Tokyo Metropolitan University (TMU) set up four research centers from 2012 to 2013. Distinguished groups exploring new frontiers of science and unique groups conducting special research reflecting the missions of TMU are designated as Research Centers to expand their research activity. The “Research Center for Gold Chemistry” (RCGC) is one of the four and is directed by Professor Masatake Haruta, who has been known as a Nobel Prize candidate.
