Greeting!
I am Daisuke Umeno, who is the only one oficially supporting CHIBA Team (too bad or them!).
We are working very hard to stay here-just to be a part of iGEM.

What is iGEM to me?
Stay back. This is my war....
As a Researcher ~Almost Lost in the Pacific
1998 Ph.D. in Chemistry, Mizuo Maeda lab. (Kyushu University, JPN).
Grafting synthetic polymers on dsDNAs.
I developed the way to freely graft the synthetic polymers on dsDNA. Here DNA was just a part of material, rather than the genetic component. I think our work was one of the very first attempts to use long stretch of DNA as a scaffold for assembling or clustering molecular function. I showed the conjugate between DNA and polymers are
1999-2003 PostDoc at Frances H. Arnold lab. (Caltech)
Directed evolution of biosynthetic pathways.
I was evolving carotenoid pathways toward novel and unique ones that never existed in Natural history. With cool students Alex Tobias and Adam Hartwick, we tested many theory on pathway evolution. Here I learned almost all about biology. Also I developed crystal clear vision on what kind of professor I would like to be. I met many special people such as Chris Voigt (UCSF, yes, that Chris) and Pat Cirino (Penn State).
2003-2005 Senior Fellow at Lawlence A. Loeb lab. (UW)
They developed a pretty cool mutator E. coli strain. I was trying to adjust their system for protein engineering. I was also involved in the glycosylase project between Loeb and Baker. Unlike the way I familiar with, they were computationally designing the new pocket of DNA repair enzyme to do new job. Because of my tranferring (and maybe lack of smartness), none of the job are completed yet. But they will be done.
April 2005 Became a faculty at Chiba (Associate Professor in Dept Applied Chemistry and Biotech.)
Our team is quite new, and we started lots of things in synthetic biology field. Keywords are E coli mutator (Loeb), phage mutator, switching (iGEM king), display techniques, DNA based-materials, and pathway enginerring. Oh, Be nice, don't say they are just the extent of what I have already done in my training days (how can I speak back to?).
As a Chiba MAN
My HOBBY
1. iGEM (of course it comes first!!)
2. Washing my digestion system with EtOH (365 days a year)
3. Car Drifting
4. Being taken care of by my family
5. Asking for money around
6. Taking nap in a train
