ProfessorMy research focuses on elucidating the molecular mechanisms by which plants produce a diverse range of compounds that can serve as medicines or poisons. By studying the genetic aspects of catalytic enzymes involved in substance production, regulatory factors, and proteins responsible for substance transport and self-resistance, I aim to shed light on the evolutionary pathways in this process.
Recent Topics of Interest: Relationship between biodiversity and human society: How should human society be in the order of the natural world, and what will happen in the future?
