AboutAbout the lab
Exploring microbial functions through genetics
The Shimizu Lab believes that controlling microbial functions benefits human life, and it conducts research using methods from genetics and molecular biology.
A wide variety of microorganisms live on Earth, and they are deeply involved in our lives in many ways.
The number of unknown microbial species is said to be in the millions, estimated at more than tens of times the number of species humans have identified.
By discovering such unknown microorganisms, the lab aims to develop microbial functions from multiple angles.
