We study the functions of the human genome, focusing especially on transcriptional regulation. In particular, we are identifying novel genomic signals that regulate transcription in various cell types, tissues and organs. In collaboration with municipal hospitals, we will explore the molecular bases for transcriptional changes in various diseases. We will also conduct in-house collaborations with individual research groups at TMiMS to facilitate genome-scale analyses.

We study the promoting factors of adolescent mental and physical health and development by large-scale cohort study and intractable disease nursing care.
We also develop social science and medicine research that meets the demands of administration in cooperation with the Tokyo metropolitan government.
