最近の研究について

I have a broad range of interests including: connectivity of freshwater streams and the influence of small weirs on freshwater biodiversity, development of an epigenetic method for determining the age of Japanese eels, exploring how mountain ranges in Japan might contribute to the evolution and maintenance of freshwater biodiversity, and the role of fish microbiomes in the evolution, adaptation, invasiveness and resilience of the host fish.  

メッセージ

I encourage students to be observant of the natural world around them and stay curious and open minded. This approach together with determination and hard work will help you in your studies (and life in general!).
