Unraveling the Nature of Sleepiness in a Global Research Environment: IWASAKI Kanako at WPI-IIIS
IWASAKI Kanako grew from curious undergraduate to Nature-published neuroscientist at WPI-IIIS, where she studied the molecular mechanisms of sleepiness under world-leading mentorship. Now at Stanford University, she credits WPI-IIIS’s “under one roof” fusion of neuroscience, pharmacology, and medicine for transforming her into a researcher who engages with the world’s leading scientists as an equal.
