Outline

The purpose of this study is to develop a new non-invasive technology that enables us to decipher the individuality of a cell expressed on the plasma membrane. By analyzing the dynamics of various membrane molecules, I will create novel index representing the characteristics unique to each neurological disease and the diversity of cells in 3 dimentional tissues. I aspire to apply the result of this study to the presymptomatic diagnosis using iPS cells in future.
