ProfessorMy goal is to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying diseases caused by immune system overreactions, such as allergic conditions including bronchial asthma and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. I aim to develop treatments based on these findings.
I am particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms that control T cell activation, which plays a central role in immune system dysregulation, and exploring the epigenetic regulation of immune memory.
Recent Topics of Interest:
(1) Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the development of allergic diseases, including asthma
(2) Investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the development of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus
(3) Advancing treatments for allergies and autoimmune diseases through immune memory resetting strategies
Motto in Research or in Life:
Research motto
(1) I prioritize ‘intriguing’: I aim for research that is not only ‘intriguing’ medically but also biologically.
(2) I cherish the unexpected: I consider our hypotheses to be as small as grains of sand in the 4.6 billion years of Earth's history.
Motto in life
(1) I avoid turning down work whenever possible, but as a result, I am finding it increasingly difficult to do what I truly want.
(2) I try not to say “I have no choice" as much as possible; however, as a consequence, there’s a buildup of situations where it just can’t be helped.
(3) I strive not to make enemies, or at least that's my intention.
Hobby / Holiday:
Watching wombat videos, Traveling, especially visiting shrines and temples, Jogging during a trip, Visiting art galleries and museums
