He has an additional post of Visiting Professor at the Institute of Statistical Mathematics (2012-). He did and has been doing pioneering works in: haplotype block analysis in the first GWAS; development of a high-throughput analysis pipeline of GWAS; analysis of linkage disequilibrium patterns in the whole human genome, which was the first in the world; data coordination, and linkage disequilibrium and homozygosity analyses in the international HapMap project; development of a haplotype phasing algorithm of copy number variation, which was the first in the world; and the first whole genome sequence and comprehensive analysis of a Japanese individual’s genome using a next-generation sequencer. He is leading statistical analyses and applied mathematics in RIKEN Center for Genomic Medicine. He is a member of the International Cancer Genome Consortium. He is also a councilor of the Japanese Cancer Association, is a councilor of the Japanese Society of Human Genetics, is an Associate Editor of Cancer Science Journal, is an Associate Editor of the Journal of Human Genetics, and a member of American Society of Human Genetics.
