Comments | My group is conducting eco-physiological research with a focus on crustaceans. We are exploring endocrine research aimed at achieving high growth of useful fishery species such as the horsehair crab and snow crab, and approaches to apply these findings to understanding the unique life phenomena exhibited by coastal crustaceans. We also aim to construct basic data that will contribute to the conservation of ecosystems and biodiversity assessment, not only in coastal areas, but also in the interconnectedness of forests, villages, oceans, and rivers. |
