My research interest is to gain insight into the origin and early evolution of eukaryotes. I am broadly interested in phylogenomics of eukaryotes by performing phylogenomic analyses with bioinformatic skills, and genome evolution by exploring the evolution of germline/soma distinctions in eukaryotic microbes.
