Statement of Research Interest
Brain complexity is implemented by astounding diversity of cell types connected in appropriate numbers and combinations. The precise control of neural progenitor/stem cell (NPC/NSC) division and differentiation is a prerequisite for the development and maintenance of circuit integrity, plasticity and regeneration. In the laboratory, our present interest is to develop various genetic and optical tools, by which we hope to gain access to the complete development from single stem (progenitor) cells to their progeny-derived neural circuits in distinct brain regions of zebrafish (Danio rerio), and thereby elucidating the fundamental logics underlying the determination of cell number, neuronal diversity, functional property of neural circuits.
