Pharmacy Division Chair / ProfessorMy research focuses on addressing various challenges encountered in clinical practice at the Division of Pharmacy, of Chiba University Hospital, and the Department of Clinical Pharmacy at the Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences.
Specifically, I conduct both basic and clinical analyses to design drug administration strategies for critically ill patients in intensive care units and those with rare diseases.
Additionally, I am engaged in basic research on vascular cells that contribute to the onset and progression of atherosclerosis, a major underlying cause of myocardial infarction and stroke. Through these works, I aim to generate novel evidence that is currently unavailable in medical practice and, in the near future, contribute to drug development initiatives originating from our division.

Professor, DirectorMembrane proteins play important roles in intercellular communication and are crucial targets for drug discovery. It is known that over 60% of commercially available drugs act on membrane proteins. In 2022, Chiba University established a research center dedicated to membrane protein research, where we focus on the production of membrane proteins, the development of structure-function analysis techniques, and the development of new drugs.

Assistant ProfessorInterestingly, the Japanese word for medicine, ‘kusuri,’ spelled backwards becomes ‘risuku,’ which sounds like ‘risk.’ To me, this serves as a reminder that medicine and the risk of side effects are inherently linked. My research aims to prevent adverse effects from occurring unpredictably by visualizing risk based on drug behavior within the body and uncovering the underlying mechanisms. Through this endeavor, I hope to contribute to the development of safer, more trustworthy medical care for all.
