Summary
With Japan's rapidly aging society, the number of patients with heart failure is increasing. Heart failure imprints a stress memory in hematopoietic stem cells, which contributes to recurrent heart failure. Our goal is to characterize this memory and uncover the mechanisms for its removal, paving the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

I am deeply honored to have received the Inamori Research Grant. It had been my dream since childhood, so I was truly excited when I received the letter from the foundation.
