After graduating from Hiroshima University in 1989 and joining Hiroshima University Second Surgery, I conducted surgical training for five years and was instructed by Professor Akira Kikuchi of Hiroshima University First Biochemistry (currently Professor of Molecular Pathology Biochemistry, Osaka University). Under the program, I completed my doctoral course by conducting research on the signal transduction mechanism of RAS, a low molecular weight GTP-binding protein. After that, under the supervision of Professor Eric R. Fearon of the Division of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan, USA, I was engaged in research on colorectal cancer-related genes and colorectal cancer disease model mice for eight years as a Post-doctoral fellow. After returning to Japan in 2006, I worked as a surgeon at Hiroshima University Hospital and Kure Medical Center, and conducted research on colorectal cancer-related genes as well as the treatment and research on hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome. I was appointed as a specially appointed professor at the Department of Genetic Medicine, Hiroshima University Hospital in April 2019. I was appointed as a professor of genetic medicine at Hiroshima University Hospital. It is an urgent challenge to foster genetic medical literacy. |
