报告摘要

In this talk, I introduce medical and healthcare devices, i.e., the implantable artificial kidney and the salt chip. Both devices are inspired by nano/micro technologies and greatly contribute to the patients’ QOL. Since these devices are quite application-oriented, commercialization of the products and, if necessary, founding a company must be envisioned. I will share what I have learned in founding a healthcare startup.

报告人简介

Norihisa Miki received Ph.D. in mechano-informatics from University of Tokyo in 2001. He developed a world-smallest drone using MEMS technology during his Ph.D. Then, he worked at MIT microengine project as a posdoc (2001-2003), later as a research engineer (2003-2004). He joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Keio University in 2004 as an assistant professor and became a full professor in 2017. His research interests started with development of MEMS-based biomedical and human interface devices. Currently, he also explores the fields of medical engineering, neuroscience, and media arts using his innovative devices. He is a department head and a chair of international affairs at Faculty of Science and Technology. He is heavily involved in entrepreneurship education. He is a Director of Keio Ice Skating Club.
