Areas of specialization
Laboratory/research office	Forest resource biology There are abundant renewable bioresources in forest and sustainable utilization of bioresources contributes to establish a society independent of fossil resource. Microorganisms in forest and wood are high potential genetic resource for bio-refining. We study biological function of microorganisms and development to an application technology to bio-refinery.
