Protein Engineering
Research
I earned my PhD in physiological signal processing and machine learning from the Université Grenoble Alpes in France, where I conducted my research at the Gipsa-Lab. My doctoral work focused on total laryngectomy surgery, which involves the removal of the larynx following advanced throat cancer, with the goal of enabling the feasibility of an implantable active artificial larynx prosthesis. This led to the development of a laboratory prototype that demonstrated the feasibility of a real-time detection of swallowing using specific neck measurements, followed by the activation of an airway protective mechanism.
Currently, I am working as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Tokyo, within in the Saito Laboratory, on biological experiment automation and protein engineering. Specifically, I use artificial intelligence methods to automate a robot designed to conduct experiments on protein engineering. Additionally, my work on protein engineering methods aimed at developing new and improved proteins for medical applications.
