Iwasaki, Masaharu
Profile
Dr. Masaharu Iwasaki received his Ph.D. degree from Kyushu University for his work on viral RNA synthesis and virion assembly of measles virus in 2010, and graduated from Kyushu University School of Medicine in 2012 (MD-PhD program). Thereafter he worked as Research Associate (2012), Senior Research Associate (2015), and Staff Scientist (2017) at The Scripps Research Institute where he started studies on molecular mechanisms of arenavirus multiplication. He was appointed to the current position in 2018.
