About

I got Ph. D at Nagoya university, Japan, of which objective  is insect immunology system in 2012. When I was postdoc researcher, I started learning bioinformatics skill. My current main research objective is genome and transcriptomic analysis in many agricultural insects (e.g. pest, silkworm and honeybee) by using bioinformatics skills.
