Research
My interest in research field is treatment and prevention of lung injury associated with lung transplantation and the surgical treatment of lung cancer.
I published several articles regarding the indication and long term outcome of limited resection for small sized lung cancer. We developed an innovative preoperative marking for difficult palpable nodules and applied it clinically
I have been researching gene therapy and immunosuppressant development for prevention and treatment of rejection on organ transplantation. In recent years, we are conducting genomic analysis and clinicopathological study of lung cancer.
Both are aiming to solve clinical problems.
