Research Summary

By applying spatial analysis to age- and time-dependent immune responses, we aim to elucidate the mechanisms that regulate the immune responses between different organs and how their immune regulation is affected by changes in the microenvironment. The ultimate goal is to understand human pathogenesis based on the results obtained from animal disease models.
