Assistant ProfessorMy research is focused on the development of novel radiopharmaceuticals. Radiopharmaceuticals are medications that contain a radioisotope within their molecular structure. When administered to patients and accumulated in cancer cells, radioactive radiations emitted from tumors can be used for nuclear medicine diagnostics and therapies. Since radiation is constantly emitted in the body, I aim to develop safe radiopharmaceuticals that selectively target cancerous tissues without accumulating in non-cancerous ones.
Recent Topics of Interests:
Therapeutic nuclear medicine using astatine-211 based radiopharmaceuticals and the coordination chemistry of metallic radioisotopes

Assistant ProfessorElements are the fundamental building blocks of matter, consisting of atoms. To date, scientists have discovered 118 different elements. Currently, I am developing measurement techniques for these elements utilizing an instrument known as an Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). Through these techniques, my research aims to elucidate the metabolic pathways of elements within living organisms.
Recent Topics of Interests:
A method to accurately measure trace amounts of elements contained within a single nanoparticle or a single cell
Motto in Research or in Life:
Utilizing the lessons from past failures to pave the way for success.
Hobby / Holiday:
Making Haiku, Drawing pictures, Listening to the radio, and Watching basketball

ProfessorRadiopharmaceuticals are drugs that contain radionuclides. Radionuclides that emit radiation with high tissue penetration are suited for diagnostic purposes, while those releasing cytotoxic radiation can serve therapeutic purposes. My goal is to advance the development of cutting-edge radiopharmaceuticals by engineering technologies that deliver these radionuclides precisely to the target tissues.
Recent Topics of Interests:
・Innovating radiopharmaceuticals that seamlessly combine diagnosis and treatment
・Developing therapeutic agents based on radioactive metal complexes
・Enhancing the efficient detection of alpha radiation
Motto in Research or in Life: Just give it a try.
