Keiichiro Mine is a Research Fellow in the Biology Department at Boston College's Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences, working in the Altindis Lab. His research examines the role of gut microbiota in autoimmune type 1 diabetes.
Education:
- PhD in Immunology, Kyushu University (2020)
- MS in Health Science, Kyushu University
- BS in Health Science, Kyushu University
His research investigates viral pathogenesis of diabetes, γδ T cells in inflammation, and gut microbiome interactions with autoimmune disorders. He specializes in mechanisms of virus-induced diabetes and immune system dysregulation in autoimmune conditions.
His publications focus on immune signaling pathways in diabetes development, SARS-CoV-2 impacts on pancreatic function, and genetic susceptibility to virus-induced diabetes. Research consistently demonstrates themes of immune dysregulation in metabolic disorders and viral triggers for autoimmunity.
Awards:
- Cell Science Research Foundation Development Grant (2024)
- Manpei Suzuki Diabetes Foundation Study Abroad Grant (2024)
- Young Investigator Award, Japan Diabetes Society (2023)
- Travel Grant Award, Type 1 Diabetes Research Society (2018)
