Interests
My research has comprehensively encapsulated a wide range of fields, such as medicine, drug resistance, genetics, evolution, ecology, behavioral science, and anthropology. In addition, my research has incorporated cutting-edge technologies in life science, and I have consistently developed my research approach by drawing on diverse perspectives and an in-depth understanding of the research problem. This approach to research has been reflected in the subsequent results, which combines a series of research on "behavioral characteristics / characters (phenotype)-gene sequence-gene function-protein structure."
I will continue to focus on developing a full understanding of research motivations and questions and will draw on the behavioral characteristics of living organisms and experimental data from biology.
My research plans
Research item 1:
Relationship between genetic polymorphisms and the behavioral characteristics and traits of organisms
Research item 2:
Investigate drug resistant candidate genes using idarubicin resistant cell lines
Research item 3:
Prediction of cancer recurrence risk due to mitochondrial DNA gene mutation
Research item 4:
Elucidation of the cause of Neurally Mediated Syncope (NMS)
Research item 5:
Gender differences in patients with Takotsubo Syndrome based on biopsy of left ventricle
