Yukihiko Sugita is an Associate Professor at the Institute for Life and Medical Sciences and the Graduate School of Biostudies at Kyoto University. He earned a PhD in Medicine from the University of Tokyo. His career includes positions as a JSPS Research Fellow, postdoctoral scholar at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University, specially appointed researcher and assistant professor at Osaka University’s Institute for Protein Research, and program-specific assistant professor and Hakubi Center associate professor at Kyoto University before his current role.
Sugita’s research focuses on the structural biology of RNA viruses using cryo-electron microscopy and related techniques. He has contributed to studies on the assembly and ultrastructure of viruses including influenza, Ebola, Marburg, and Borna disease virus. Key publications include the Cryo-EM structure of the Ebola virus nucleoprotein-RNA complex published in Nature in 2018 and Structure and assembly of Borna disease virus 1 nucleoprotein–RNA complexes published in Science Advances in 2026. He maintains professional memberships in the Japanese Society for Virology, the Biophysical Society of Japan, and the Protein Science Society of Japan.
Kyoto University scientists reveal the first high-resolution structures of BoDV-1 N-RNA complexes using cryo-EM, uncovering unique assembly mechanisms and paving the way for antivirals against this fatal encephalitis virus.
