Dr. Tatsuya Murakami is a research associate in Dr. Nathaniel Heintz’s Laboratory of Molecular Biology at The Rockefeller University. He was born and raised in Japan as the son of a Shinto priest, where early exposure to spiritual and cultural perspectives on the mind inspired his curiosity about the neural basis of human thought and behavior. His work explores the question of how symptoms in neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders are represented in a cellular network. To address this question, he devised imaging techniques that enable spatial characterization of the transcriptome state of human brains in a disease state. Dr. Murakami obtained his M.Sc. in life science from Tsinghua University, and his Ph.D. in medical science from the University of Tokyo, where he conducted research in whole-mammalian brain single-cell-resolution imaging with Dr. Hiroki R. Ueda.
