Hello! I'm Yoshi 

I am a 12-year experienced cardiologist specializing electro-cardiology.

In 2019, I settled in Chicago to start a new life as a postdoc at the department of preventive medicine. Under the COVID-19 pandemic, I struggled for staying here, but decided to be in Chicago for additional year with my family. From 2021, I moved to Center for Arrhythmia Research at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine to improve my clinical research skills in the field of arrhythmias.

初めまして 

現在医師13年目の循環器内科医です。2019年1月からシカゴにあるノースウェスタン大学予防医学講座に留学し、心房細動という不整脈の臨床・疫学研究を行っています。2021年1月からはノースウェスタン大学に新設された、不整脈リサーチセンターの初代リサーチフェローとして、日々研究に従事しています。コロナ禍で留学生活は大変ですが、家族とともに楽しく生活しています。

ノースウェスタン大学予防医学講座、不整脈リサーチセンター、留学全般に関する質問、共同研究のお誘い等ございましたら、Contactからご連絡頂ければご返答させて頂きます。

I am a cardiologist, specializing in electro-cardiology.
I have seen a bunch of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases, such as angina, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and arrhythmias.
Throughout my extensive experience as a cardiologist, I got interested in the methods to prevent a progression of cardiovascular diseases. 
Research interest

 

My research interest involves clinical and epidemiological research in the field of arrhythmic disorders, such as atrial fibrillation (AF).

Additionally, I am also interested in the risk management of cardiovascular disease, especially younger generation.

Introduce some of my recent publications at the department of preventive medicine, Northwestern University. 

I am involved in clinical or epidemiological researches looking at one of the most common arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is reportedly associated with increased risk for embolic stroke and heart failure, and the prevalence of AF is increasing under the context of population aging. Therefore, identifying new risks for AF and establishing treatment strategies are crucial to decrease serious complications related to AF.
