Assistant ProfessorAiming to enhance the quality of preventive care for delirium in both hospital wards and home-care settings, I am conducting research on predicting delirium onset using machine learning. Although delirium has multiple contributing factors, my work focuses on sleep and environmental adjustments—areas in which nursing interventions may help prevent or mitigate delirium.

Recent Topics of Interest:
・ The current situation of delirium among older adults living at home
・ Ethical issues related to the use of sensing data in home-based care
・ Research utilizing real-world data
Motto in Research or in Life:
Fishers tend their nets when they can’t go fishing.
Hobby / Holiday:
Mostly doing housework and catching up on sleep, with occasional calligraphy, sashiko and kogin embroidery, and visits to stationery stores.
