Prof. Tsutomu Suzuki The University of Tokyo, Japan

Dr. Tsutomu Suzuki is a professor at the department of chemistry and biotechnology in University of Tokyo, Japan. His research centres on RNA biochemistry, especially on the biogenesis and function of RNA modifications, and molecular mechanisms of protein synthesis. His group has developed their platform technologies for isolating individual RNAs,... read moreand for highly sensitive analysis of RNA modifications by mass spectrometry. His group discovered several novel modifications and dozens of RNA-modifying enzymes. His group also reported the first instance of human disease caused by disrupted RNA modification, and is now studying the molecular pathogenesis of this disease.
