Professor and DeanI am conducting fundamental medical research on the regulation of sugar and energy metabolism. My primary research interests lie in investigating inter-organ networks and intracellular signal pathways. Specifically, I am exploring innovative treatments for conditions such as diabetes, obesity, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Additionally, I actively contribute to promoting research in the field of disaster medicine, with the ultimate goal of fostering a resilient society that can effectively protect people's health during and after emergencies and disasters.

Motto in Research or in Life:
Necessity is the mother of invention. Where there's a will, there's a way. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
