Biography
Keiko obtained her Ph.D. in Bioscience at Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST) in Japan, studying the regulation of p53 tumor suppressor by nuclear localization. Her post-doctoral study was at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory focusing on the molecular mechanisms of gene regulation resulting from epigenetic changes in stem cells. Two years of this work was supported by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM). She then transitioned to the Stanford Neuroscience Gene Vector Virus Core and managed the production of AAV and lentivirus and started developing new AAV capsids.
