I am a physical therapist and professor at Aichi Shukutoku University in Japan. My research focuses on rehabilitation in acute and chronic care settings, with a particular emphasis on cardiovascular diseases and intensive care. I have been actively involved in studies on ICU-acquired weakness, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and autophagy-related muscle loss in critically ill patients. I am also interested in rehabilitation strategies for frailty and sarcopenia, as well as the integration of nutritional management in rehabilitation. Currently, I serve as Chair of the 9th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Cardiovascular Physical Therapy, and I am committed to advancing global standards in physiotherapy, especially in critical care environments.
