Welcome to Kuroda Lab.
Ultimate goal of our study is understanding of mechanism of metabolic and signaling networks that regulate various cellular functions including cellular signaling and metabolic regulation at systems level. In these biological processes, the same input stimulation elicits distinct outcomes depending temporal patterns of input, and we are interested in quantitative mechanisms of the encoding/decoding systems via signaling networks that underlie these processing. We use both experimental and computational approaches. Thus, we are trying to understand cellular processes in terms of Systems Biology.
