Ryusuke Hatae, MD, PhD

Postdoctoral Scholar

Research Interests:

As a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Tasuku Honjo’s laboratory, I worked on developing the host immune metabolic biomarkers in cancer patients treated with PD-1 antibody. I also investigated the correlation between exhausted T cells and immune metabolism.

My current work is focused on discovering novel combinatorial immunotherapies for glioma from the aspect of immune metabolism.

Other Interests: Outside the lab, I enjoy watching sports, having a drink with friends, and playing with my children.
