Self-introduction
My research focuses on developing novel therapeutic agents for chronic pain and central nervous system disorders, based on a deep understanding of their pathophysiology. Currently, I am particularly interested in developing new treatments for intractable pain and elucidating the functions of brain microglia in aging.
