Hodaka Fujii

Dr. Fujii is a Professor of Biochemistry and Genome Biology at Hirosaki University Graduate School of Medicine. His laboratory studies the molecular mechanisms of genome functions including epigenetic regulation and chromatin biology by using the chromatin capture technologies consisting of insertional chromatin immunoprecipitation (iChIP) and engineered DNA-binding molecule-mediated chromatin immunoprecipitation (enChIP) developed in his lab. The enChIP technology utilizes CRISPR and other systems for locus tagging. He received his MD and Ph.D. from the University of Tokyo and led his research group as a PI at the Basel Institute for Immunology, Assistant Professor at New York University, and Associate Professor at Osaka University.
