Dr Yosuke Ono

I am a resercher in molecular and developmetal biology and using zebrafish as a model. My current research is focusing on the regulatory mechanisms of muscle morphogenesis, growth and regeneration. I'm analysing the function of muscle-specific genes during development using genetically modified (transgenic and mutant) zebrafish. Also, I'm working on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing technologies using zebrafish embryos.
