Machine-translated · View original
A pediatrics lab that conducts research while providing clinical care for children with blood and immune disorders.

AboutAbout the lab
Researching childhood blood and immune disorders alongside clinical care
Associate Professor Masataka Ishimura of the Perinatal and Pediatric Medicine Pediatrics Lab is engaged in clinical care, education, and research in pediatrics.
The profile introduces the specialty as the field of childhood blood and immune disorders.
In research, the lab conducts basic and clinical research centered on hereditary blood disorders and coagulation disorders, immunodeficiency, and pediatric connective tissue diseases.
In education, the lab gives lectures and bedside training to medical students, supervises junior residents and pediatric residents, and provides research guidance to graduate students.
Key terms
- Coagulation disorder
- A disease in which the blood's ability to clot is abnormal
- Immunodeficiency
- A disease in which the immune system that protects the body does not work properly, making a person more prone to infections and other illnesses
- Connective tissue disease (collagen disease)
- A general term for diseases in which abnormal immune activity causes inflammation in various organs throughout the body
