| Research Abstract |
I have progressed to develop how to produce donor kidneys using kidney stem cells and kidney developmental mechanism. I made studies of the production of donor kidney with iPS/ES cells, the establishment of in vitro assay for kidney differentiation, expansion to human kidney diseases and livestock animal experiment.
