Profile I obtained Dr. Sci. in biology at Tohoku University in 2003. I was JSPS Research Fellow (PD) at Tohoku University from 2003 to 2006, and was the lecturer and the associate professor of Kochi University from 2006 to 2017. I moved to Tokyo City University as professor since 2017. The main research interests of my laboratory are biodiversity and evolutionary biology. The research subjects of my laboratory members are adaptation, speciation, conservation biology, interaction between plants and insects, biodiversity genomics, and so on.
Research Field(Keyword & Summary)
  1. (1) adaptation/speciation

    The research purpose is to clarify the morphology and ecology of organisms that adapt to special environments.

  2. (2) evolution

    The research purposeis to clarify the evolutionary history of biodiversity using morphological, anatomical and molecuar approaches.
