Introduction

After getting PhD from Niigata University in Japan and going through postdoctoral and faculty positions, I moved to Taiwan on 2012. I got a position at the Institute of Molecular Medicine, National Cheng Kung University, where I currently serve as an Associate Professor. I'm studying bacteriology by using genetics and molecular biology.

Because I myself is foreigner, my lab is mixed cultured laboratory joining people who are coming from different countries and fields.
