We have conducted studies on the reproductive biology, especially focusing on the functions of sex steroid hormones during reproductive organ development and cancer formation. I am also interested in how environmental factors affect animal development; Sex determination in certain vertebrates depends on ambient temperature. Chemical released into environment could induce deleterious reproductive effects on wildlife. The current research topics are:
