In the area of blood flow research, mygoal is to create a diagnostic system that caninstantly assess the risk of atheroscleroticplaque based on patient-specific medicalimaging, for example by means of MRI.Outlook for students after graduationGraduates have gone on to work in such fields asmedicalmachinery,automobiles, electronics, and information andcommunications. Some have even pursuedcareers as public officials or re searchers ineducational research organizations.devices,Outlook for researchBy applying engineering solutions to the medical field,I have been investigating a measurement system toobtain biologicalfordiagnosis and to assist daily lives. Focusing on asalivary protein, which can be an effective index ofsympathetic nerves activity, a quick, easy-t o useanalytical method as a portable device was proposed.information thatOutlook for students after graduationGraduates workaspharmaceuticals, biotechnology, automobile andother industries. The human science and assistivetechnology might contribute to an aging society.Professor Kobayashi took his currentposition in 2009 after serving in theandfacultyTechnology at Shinshu University as aseniorandassociate professor. He began hisresearch on blood flow in 1996 and1997 while working as a visitingscholar at the Georgia Institute ofTechnology. He currently continues tocarry out international joint research.Professor Yamaguchi took his currentposition in 2015 after working as anassistant professor at Tokyo University ofAgriculture and technology, an associateprofessor at Toyama University, and aprofessor at Iwate University.The stiffness of this fin, whose design is based on the flexible movementof the tails of fish, is altered in real time in an attempt to increasepropulsive performance.This robot, which can swim in alldirections, was developed bystudying the swimming motionof the ragworm.Portable biosensor of human stress levels by using salivary biomarker.Lotus leaf and superhydrophobicity expressed by nano-periodic structure on a solid surface.ofTaxtileScienceassistantprofessorA modelnumericalatherosclerosisexperimentcomputationandofI am studying the swimming behavior of various forms ofaquatic life in order to create a new robot based on theI am alsoadroit swimming ability ofstudying blood flow in orderto examine mechanicalvulnerability to atherosclerotic plaque through modelexperiments using artificial diseased arteries and numericalcomputations.Our laboratory has been exploring a new research field: biologicalmeasurement by analyzingsamples with “human”,“noninvasive”, and “biosensor” as research key words. Noninvasivebiological measurement, using a variety of information obtainedpainlessly from the human body, is a technology to maintain humanhealth and is used for medical diagnosis and treatment. Furthermore,our lab is also researching other technologies that can physicallycontrol wettability of material surfaces as a biomimetic technology.living creatures.salivaryprecisionis usefulat manufacturessuchExploring the biomimetics of aquatic life and medical engineering using biofluid mechanicsHuman information networks and noninvasive biosensingBioengineeringBioengineering
