AboutAbout the lab
Rehabilitation for a new era.
The Innovative Rehabilitation Science Lab aims to develop rehabilitation technologies that meet the needs of the times.
Applying the PDCA cycle of repeated “assessment” and “intervention” to research as well, the lab tackles a wide range of problems, from molecules and cells to organs, individuals, and society, from both basic and clinical perspectives.
Students learn the whole process, from organizing the problem to verifying the results, step by step across the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral programs.
Key terms
- PDCA cycle
- An approach in which plan, do, check, and act are repeated to continually review and improve how things are done
- Regenerative rehabilitation
- An approach that combines regenerative medicine and rehabilitation to bring out the full potential of transplanted cells
- Sarcopenia
- The loss of muscle mass and strength with aging
- Frailty
- A state in which physical and mental functions have weakened with age, just short of needing nursing care
ResearchResearch themes
The lab pursues a wide range of themes, including the health of middle-aged and older adults, regenerative medicine, women's health, sports injuries, medical and healthcare devices, and the health of working people.
*Illustrative imagePromoting Health in Middle-Aged and Older Adults
Through on-site measurement events in the field, the lab clarifies how motor function, respiratory function, and cognitive function change over time. It investigates factors related to sarcopenia, frailty, and falls.
*Illustrative imageRegenerative Rehabilitation
For transplanted cells to perform well, the transplant environment must be prepared and the cells themselves must be strengthened. Drawing on knowledge ranging from molecular biology to physical therapy and rehabilitation medicine, the lab is working to develop regenerative rehabilitation.
*Illustrative imageHealth Issues Specific to Women
The lab investigates problems associated with the menstrual cycle and minor ailments during pregnancy. By examining factors related to low back pain during pregnancy and premenstrual syndrome, it will propose countermeasures and preventive methods for problems that women face throughout their lives.
*Illustrative imagePreventing Sports Injuries
Many factors are involved in the onset of sports injuries, including the individual, the environment, coaches, and society. Targeting rowing, keirin cycling, baseball elbow, soccer, and more, the lab studies practical approaches to injury prevention.
