Mission statement

model of knee joint showing multiple sta

Our research group has a strong interest in Preventive rehabilitation  for Osteoarthritis in Rehabilitation Science field. In particular, our Research Program consist of the context of joint Mechanobiology and disease. 


・Associated between osteoarthritis development/progression and joint instability
・How influence of mechanical stress/hormone metabolism affects chondrocyte functions, contributes to osteoarthritis development/progression
・How exercise contributes to osteoarthritis development/progression/prevention

I’m looking forward to working together !!
