Professor　We are conducting research on the preparation and evaluation of solid dispersion formulations, nanoparticle formulations, and self-emulsifying formulations with the aim of improving the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs. Our focus is on clarifying drug elution and membrane permeation mechanisms from these formulations at the molecular level, contributing to formulation development.
　The formulation and physical property evaluation technology in our laboratory is also applied to various fields, including food, cosmetics, and agrochemical-related industries.

Recent Topics of Interests:
Examining the relationship between physical properties of lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations in COVID-19 vaccines and their therapeutic effects and side effects
Motto in Research or in Life:
To measure, evaluate, and make decisions from multiple perspectives and methods.
Hobby / Holiday:
Traveling, Taking care of my dog
