Masaaki M Muramatsu - Epidemiology

Author Information

Masaaki Muramatsu is a distinguished researcher affiliated with the Department of Molecular Epidemiology at the Medical Research Institute of Tokyo Medical and Dental University, located in Tokyo, Japan. His research focuses primarily on the genetic and molecular epidemiology of various diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders. His work contributes significantly to understanding the genetic factors influencing disease development and progression, particularly in the Japanese population.

Research Contributions

Masaaki Muramatsu has made substantial contributions to the field of molecular epidemiology through his research on genetic variants and their associations with diseases. His studies have explored the impact of specific genetic variants, such as those related to cancer susceptibility and fetal growth, on disease prevalence and progression. Notable works include investigating the role of the COL17A1 germline variant in mucosal malignant melanoma and the association of CYP2A6 gene deletions with cancer in the elderly Japanese population. His research on extracellular vesicle microRNAs and fetal growth highlights the complexity of genetic and environmental interactions in health and disease.
