His PhD research was performed at Hokkaido University in microRNA analysis of plasma and iPS cell derived endothelial cells in moyamoya disease. He joined Steinberg lab in 2018 as a postdoctoral researcher. His current research focuses on elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying post-stroke brain recovery by using RNA sequencing technology to analyze the transcriptome of primary motor cortex in optogenetically stimulated mice. He also studies about molecular pathways of moyamoya disease, which is a rare cerebrovascular disorder of unknown cause, characterized by progressive occlusion of major cerebral arteries.
