Research

In recent years, advances in research analysis techniques have made it possible to study life sciences with extremely high resolution. Through this process, it has become clear that the molecular mechanisms within human cells are incredibly complicated, with various molecules working together to build and maintain normal cell functions. Our laboratory uses human cancer cells to investigate these intricate molecular mechanisms within the human body from both an RNA perspective and a cytokine response viewpoint. In addition, we aim to identify the molecular mechanisms that cause various diseases, including cancer.
