Work content and job description
Our major research interest is to elucidate the mechanisms of tumor progression and metastasis, by unveiling the multicellular network among cancer cells, immune cells and tissue stromal cells, such as fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells, in tumor microenvironment, aiming at developing innovative strategies for cancer prevention and treatment. We also aim to understand the mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of bone metastasis by focusing on the immune-bone crosstalk. In order to achieve the goal, we are recruiting a scientist who has expertise in molecular biology, cell biology and immunology, and has the capacity of promoting cancer research by utilizing leading-edge technologies such as single cell multi-omics and advanced imaging techniques.
