AboutAbout the lab
Making nursing visible and verifying its effects and safety
Through research that integrates medicine, science, and engineering, the Nursing Science and Engineering and Women's Health Nursing Lab aims to make nursing visible and to verify evidence of its effectiveness and safety.
Focusing on needs from clinical practice, such as "If only we had a tool like this, we could provide better care," the lab develops new technologies and creates new devices.
In particular, the lab works on research that contributes to supporting the health of women and children.
Because the lab's research leader is involved in nursing education and midwifery education, many members hold midwife qualifications, chose the midwifery course in graduate school, or are undergraduates who hope to become midwives in the future.
