Research Overview
With the aim of elucidating factors contributing to the severity of infectious diseases and understanding host–pathogen interactions, as well as developing novel therapeutic strategies, we are conducting analyses using clinical specimens obtained from the bedside, followed by biological functional evaluation of the findings. In recent years, we have also expanded our research efforts to field settings in low- and middle-income countries, promoting global initiatives to combat infectious diseases.
