About

Hirotomo Kato is a Professor at Jichi Medical University in Japan. His research focuses on the epidemiology and pathology of leishmaniasis, particularly in relation to vector biology and host-microbiota interactions. He has published recent articles on topics including chemokine binding, microbiota composition in sand flies, and the development of Plasmodium parasites. His work contributes significantly to understanding vector-borne diseases and their implications for public health.
