Mer om författaren

Masashi Kamo has been a researcher at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Research Institute of Science for Safety and Sustainability (RISS), Japan since 2004. His research interests include ecology, evolutionary biology, and risk assessment. In evolutionary biology, he is interested in topics such as the evolution of infectious diseases and uses various models to study and solve related problems. In risk assessment, he looks for topics that can be analyzed using mathematical models. This approach leads him to conduct research on a diverse range of topics within risk assessment.
