Welcome to my website!
I am a clinical fellow in the Department of Radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I earned my MD and PhD from the University of Tokyo and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging. I am board certified in Diagnostic Radiology in Japan.
As a physician-scientist, my research focuses on advancing multiparametric and multicontrast MRI, from technology development and validation to clinical translation. I am a Junior Fellow of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM). My work has also been recognized with the Kato Prize from the Japanese Society of Neuroradiology and the Seiji Ogawa Award and Prince-Meaney Translational Science Award from ISMRM.
