As a Ph.D. student in Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley, my enthusiasm lies in exploring the intricacies of the human genome and the mechanics of chromatin. Originally from Japan, I serve as a representative of the Berkeley Japanese Academic Network (BJAN). I am deeply committed to building a global scientific community bound by a passion for research, a commitment to scientific exploration, and collaborative innovation. My experience fighting Eosinophilic Gastro-Intestinal Disorder, an incurable disease, is the driving force behind my ambition to understand human diseases and contribute to healthcare via state-of-the-art molecular biomechanics.
Outside of the lab, I like playing sports and fighting. My favorite food is protein powder.
