The present invention provides a living-specimen observation and measurement system for storing a predetermined observation condition and controlling the predetermined observation condition based on an activity specific to a living specimen. The predetermined observation condition is information (items) about, for example, observation and culturing. More specifically, the predetermined observation condition includes the type of a living specimen, the incubation temperature, the pH, the seeding concentration, the cell density, time elapsed from seeding, the fluorochrome type, the fluorochrome concentration, the presence of delivered drug, the amount of light radiated onto the living specimen (e.g., irradiation light intensity per cell, irradiation light illuminance, etc.), the wavelength of irradiation light, the continuity of irradiation light (CW, pulse frequency, pulse width), the duration of a single irradiation, the number of observations, the observation interval, and so forth. A living specimen denotes, for example, a living tissue (biological tissue) and a living cell (biological cell). The living specimen may be cultured cells or tissues extracted from a living organism. Alternatively, the living specimen may be a living organism for in-vivo (in the body a living organism) examination.
