This lab is studying on immunology and toxicology.

The PI of this lab, Yasunori Ogura, MD. PhD have been working on innate immunity and inflammation for more than 10 years.

In addition, we recently started working on the mushroom (Basidiomycetes).  We are interested in the molecular mechanism of the formation of that shape.

I am seeking MS or PhD graduate students interested in working on molecular genetics of the model mushroom, Coprinopsis cinerea.  We intend to generate mutant lines that have abnormality in the nutrient usage.  If you are interested in working with us, feel free to e-mail me at
