Current Research
Relationships between planetary-scale changes in the environment and biological adaptation are of important concern. The long-term goal of in my lab is to elucidate mechanisms of biological adaptation and to predict the future form of organisms through the atomic description of biological macromolecules. To approach this goal, we are proposing a concept of "temperature driven evolution," in which I try to organize information and to model the biological system along physical factors including temperature.
