Hiroshi Hamada is the Director of the RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology (CDB) in Kobe, Japan. His lab focusses on the establishment of left-right asymmetry in the mouse embryo, and the role of cilia in the symmetry-breaking event. Hiroshi's work has been recognised by various awards, including the Keio Medical Science Prize in 2014, and election as an EMBO Associate Member in 2016. We met with Hiroshi on a recent visit to the CDB, to talk about his career and current interests, and the prospects for developmental biology in Japan.
滨田浩是日本神户理化学研究所发育生物学中心(CDB)的主任。他的实验室专注于小鼠胚胎左右不对称性的建立,以及纤毛在打破对称性事件中的作用。滨田浩的工作获得了各种奖项认可,包括2014年的庆应义塾医学奖,以及2016年当选为欧洲分子生物学组织(EMBO)准会员。我们最近在访问CDB时与滨田浩进行了会面,谈论了他的职业生涯、当前兴趣以及日本发育生物学的前景。
