We are now recruiting graduate students who are motivated and interested in our research field.
We are doing in vitro and in vivo researches to study regulatory mechanisms for redox signaling pathways that nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species, 2-oxo-imidazole dipeptides, and supersulfides (aka., reactive sulfur species) are involved in by using cell biological, molecular biological and biochemical approaches.
If you were curious about our research, please feel free to contact us!!
