Guidance Policy for Graduate Students
Our research foucus is to “search for genetic information useful for medical care and welfare.”
My major research interest includes applied animal and human genetics in transfusion medicine, DNA identification technology, and biological diversity. Currently, my research focuses on animal genetics, in particular, the following:
| 1) |
Genetic variation of mitochondorial DNA hypervariable region 1 haplotype and short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms in dogs |
| 2) | Blood typing and candidate gene approach associated with erythrocyte antigens in dogs and cats |
| 3) | Identification of DNA markers associated with guide dog suitability |
Guidance Policy for Graduate Students
In the Master’s Program, students aim to acquire a wide range of knowledge and skills related to research. Students acquire various genetic and statistical analysis, etc. In the doctoral program, students sill conduct research on deeper themes and aim to become independent researchers. In addition, we provide thorough training in research ethics, academic presentations, and writing academic papers.
Note
It is desirable to have experience in basic genetic analysis such as PCR.
