Profile Summary

Biography I earned my Ph.D. in Materials Science from Hokkaido University, Japan, in 2009 under the highly competitive MEXT Scholarship. I then conducted postdoctoral research at the Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University (2009-2013), where I worked on fluorescence molecular imaging projects supported by major national programs from NEDO and the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). These projects emphasized advanced optical spectroscopy, imaging system development, and interdisciplinary collaboration between materials science, engineering, and life sciences. From 2013 to 2015, I served as a specially appointed Assistant Professor at Hokkaido University, gaining experience in independent project leadership, technology development, and mentoring researchers. In 2015, I joined National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Taiwan, as an Assistant Research Fellow, where I co-founded the Laboratory of Photoelectric and Photobioelectrics with Prof. Nobuhiro Ohta. My current work focuses on living cells and tissues, photoelectric and bioelectric nanotechnologies, and semiconductor optoelectronics, with a strong emphasis on practical and scalable solutions. I specialize in developing optical, spectroscopic, and engineering-based methodologies to control molecular and electronic dynamics in materials, as well as to non-invasively monitor and modulate biological functions. My research bridges materials science, device physics, and bioengineering, aiming to translate fundamental discoveries into robust technologies for biomedical, sensing, and optoelectronic applications.
