ProfessorI conduct research while treating patients as a nephrologist and dialysis specialist.
My research focuses on elucidating the mechanisms underlying the progression of chronic kidney disease, with a particular emphasis on podocyte injury in the glomerulus, the kidney’s filtration unit, which has been the central focus of my work to date.
