Analysis of functional RNAs and their regulatory proteins
My lab will continue to work on.
“Advanced Biosciences” seminars (Arakawa, Hirayama, Kanai, Kono, Kuroda, Naito, Soga, Sugimoto, Suzuki, and Tsujimoto are operated along with Academic Project “Advanced Biosciences” for graduate students. All members, including faculty members, graduate students, and undergraduate students are involved to research projects. The seminar(s) to be taken will be announced when students are notified of their permission to enroll." Please check our website for more details. https://www.iab.keio.ac.jp/en/index.html
