Kenji Yamaoka has been actively involved in research since his time at Hiroshima University School of Medicine. After graduating, he worked as a psychiatrist for several years before transitioning to a career in research. Currently, he focuses on advancing the understanding of the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders as a graduate student with a particular interest in the roles of the lateral habenula. His research aims to explore the complex interactions between neurons and glia in psychiatric conditions, contributing to a better understanding of their underlying mechanisms.
