J-Innovators:
A Pioneering, Compact Toilet Paper Maker
This new invention is automatic and it takes just 30 minutes to make a roll of toilet paper. Is it a factory? No, it is a device you could install in nearly any office. The toilet paper is made of used photocopy paper. This incredible invention was made by an innovator who had no previous experience making paper. The machine isn't only small but also consumes only about as much power as an air conditioner. Amazingly, the only materials needed are water and office wastepaper. This compact toilet paper machine took 15 years to develop. Reporter Michelle Yamamoto gets the full story.

Special cell sheets can restore functions when placed on the hearts of people who have suffered myocardial infarctions.
Science News Watch:
Cell Sheets Move Towards Clinical Trials
Science watcher Katsuyuki Sakai focuses on news about cell sheets for the heart. A new treatment using the sheets is now being researched at the Osaka University Hospital. The treatment consists of attaching sheets of cells to hearts that have suffered from myocardial infarction and other conditions. The hope is that the sheets will help restore the heart's functions. Already, there have been cases of bed-ridden patients recovering enough to return to ordinary life. The cell sheets are cultivated from muscle cells taken from the patient's own thigh. Trials are already underway. Scientists hope to bring the treatment into wide use within the next five years.

The Leading Edge:
ALMA: A Giant Telescope Searching for the Origins of Life
The ALMA telescope is located in the Chilean highlands of South America at an altitude of 5,000 meters. It is being built as a cooperative global project between Japan and other countries. Once completed, its 66 parabolic antennas will detect extremely faint radio signals from space. These signalsh could bring new insights into the mysteries of the universe and even the origins of life. With an ultra-high resolution, ALMA is the ultimate radiotelescope. We focus on the story of a Japanese scientist who was closely involved in its construction, Satoru Iguchi. He is the East Asian ALMA Project Manager and an associate professor at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. Iguchi joins us in the studio to talk about ALMA's findings since observations began last year. Be sure to tune in!
