Taizen's adopted son [[Sato Takanaka|Satô Takanaka]]<!--佐藤尚中--> (Yamaguchi Shunkai<!--山口舜海-->) studied medicine in Nagasaki with the Dutch military doctor [[Johannes Lijdius Catharinus Pompe van Meerdervoort|Pompe]], and then came to the Juntendô, where he took in a systematic medical education, studying and developing methods which continued to play a prominent role in how medicine was practiced in the [[Meiji period]].
Taizen's adopted son [[Sato Takanaka|Satô Takanaka]]<!--佐藤尚中--> (Yamaguchi Shunkai<!--山口舜海-->) studied medicine in Nagasaki with the Dutch military doctor [[Johannes Lijdius Catharinus Pompe van Meerdervoort|Pompe]], and then came to the Juntendô, where he took in a systematic medical education, studying and developing methods which continued to play a prominent role in how medicine was practiced in the [[Meiji period]].
Following the [[Meiji Restoration]], the new [[Meiji government]] invited Takanaka to establish and run a medical school in [[Tokyo]], which later developed into the Medical School of the [[University of Tokyo]]; he established at that time the Juntendô-iin (Juntendô Clinic) in [[Ochanomizu]]. Meanwhile, the Sakura Juntendô passed into the hands of Takanaka's adopted son, [[Sato Shunkai|Satô Shunkai]]<!--佐藤舜海--> (Okamoto Dôan<!--岡本道庵-->)
Following the [[Meiji Restoration]], the new [[Meiji government]] invited Takanaka to establish and run a medical school in [[Tokyo]]. The school, established in [[1869]], was called the ''daigaku tôkô'', or "University East School," and later developed into the Medical School of the [[University of Tokyo]]; in [[1873]], Takanaka then also established the Juntendô-iin (Juntendô Clinic) in [[Ochanomizu]], and Juntendô University. The latter was later inherited by [[Sato Susumu|Satô Susumu]] (Takawa Kaiseki), another adoptee into the [[Sato family (Juntendo)|Satô family]]. Meanwhile, the Sakura Juntendô passed into the hands of Takanaka's adopted son, [[Sato Shunkai|Satô Shunkai]]<!--佐藤舜海--> (Okamoto Dôan<!--岡本道庵-->)
Several of Satô Taizen's natural children, meanwhile, were adopted into other families. One such son, [[Matsumoto Ryojun|Matsumoto Ryôjun]], studied Western medicine with Pompe in Nagasaki, was appointed to a high-ranking post within the shogunate's medical office, and later became a medical officer with the [[Imperial Japanese Army]]. Another of Taizen's sons, [[Hayashi Tadasu]], served for a time as Japanese consul in England, and as Foreign Minister, playing a key role in the development of the [[UK-Japan Alliance]].
Takanaka's daughter, [[Sato Shizu|Satô Shizu]], was a pioneer in women's education, and served for a time as head of a private women's school of art. A number of prominent figures such as [[Enomoto Takeaki]], [[Mitsukuri Rinsho|Mitsukuri Rinshô]], and [[Ogata Koreyoshi]], meanwhile, married into the Satô family.
The building which survives today and is maintained as a historical site was originally built in [[1858]] on the opposite side of the street, and was just one part of a larger Juntendô complex.
