Overview of Research and Education
Research Contents: Precisely controlled cell division is an essential process of heredity, development, and homeostasis. However, it is not known how a cell equally distributes its contents, or what are the principles of cell fate alterations after cell division failure. Using cutting-edge microscopes and cellular biological techniques, we are trying to elucidate the structure and function of cellular machinery that govern elaborate regulation of cell division and to understand biological consequence of disregulated cell divisions.
