We are interested in
cellular/molecular mechanisms of signal transduction in the nano-scale
structure. Our lab is especially focusing on the real time measurement of the
molecular dynamics, and has expertise in electrophysiology (patch clamp),
fluorescent imaging (visualization of the fine process, Ca2+
imaging), biochemistry (real time measurement of enzyme activities), photolysis
of caged substances within the submicron cellular compartments, computer
coding/simulation, electrical hardware (mostly, analogue circuits).
Join the Lab? It
is helpful if you have experiences on techniques listed above in advance, and,
based on them, you expand the conventional concepts to new fields of
researches. Our attitude for science is to focus on an invention of new category
of fields. In this aspect, young scientists who are actually stuck in a rut in
established fields and who are eager to challenge the upper limitation of their
abilities are especially welcome. We have prepared several subjects after
conducting preliminary experiments, but the quality of the final product could
be determined by your skills. We will guide you by judging significance of the
work.
Usually, people start contacting us earlier than a year before the entrance examination or actual participation.
