Ishitani, Tohru
Profile
Dr. Ishitani received his Ph.D. from Nagoya University in 2002. After working as postdoctoral fellow in the same university, he became Associate Professor in the Medical Institute of Bioregulation, Kyushu University in 2006. He was appointed Professor in the Institute for Molecular and Cellular Regulation, Gunma University in 2017. He took his current position at RIMD in 2019.
He received Young Scientists' Prize of The Commendation for Science and Technology by MEXT in 2009, and Samuro Kakiuchi Memorial Award by the Japanese Biochemical Society in 2014, and NAGASE foundation award in 2020.
