Opening up new domains for the utilization of silk materials, especially aim to use in medical area including as material for regenerative medicine

【Supercategory：4. Techtextiles Subcategory：4.7 For medical and healthcare】

I am carrying out research focused on the development of new utilization technology for silk proteins material beyond the use as fabric in apparel. My lab is studying to understand the characteristic natures of silk proteins materials for utilization as medical materials (biomaterials) by cell culture technique, biochemical measurements, and physicochemical analysis of materials, and aim to create new functional silk materials by development of new fabrication technology, chemically and genetically modification technology.
