Masayuki Satake is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at The University of Tokyo. His research focuses on natural product chemistry, specifically the isolation and structural determination of new marine natural products from dinoflagellates. He investigates the biosynthetic mechanisms of these compounds through NMR analysis, incorporation experiments, and chemical synthesis of potential biosynthetic precursors. His work centers on identifying bioactive compounds from marine dinoflagellates and elucidating their biosynthetic pathways.
