Dermatology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores disease mechanisms and treatments, centered on skin immunology and allergy.
AboutAbout the lab
Unraveling immunity and allergy through the skin.
The lab's research centers on skin immunology and allergy.
Dermatology practice has long relied heavily on experience-based visual assessment, but it has now entered an era of new drugs, such as molecular targeted drugs, based on disease mechanisms.
Because correctly understanding the actions and side effects of new drugs requires a grounding in science, the lab aims to train first-rate physician-scientists.
In keeping with Kyoto University's tradition of valuing freedom, the lab works to build a department that respects each member's independence and diversity.
