Kaoru Hattori is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering at Waseda University. Holding dual PhDs in Medicine (Hirosaki University, 2017) and Biomedical Science (Waseda University & Tokyo Women's Medical University, 2022), his work bridges cardiovascular surgery and medical engineering.
- PhD in Medicine (2017)
- PhD in Biomedical Science (2022)
Research focuses on bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) hemodynamics, cardiovascular medical engineering, and 4D-MRI-based circulatory simulation. He developed MRI-compatible pulsatile flow systems to analyze BAV-related aortic dilatation and tricuspid regurgitation models.
Key awards include JSPS Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research (2019-2022; 2023-2026) for device development and aortic dilatation risk classification. His presentations at major societies (American Heart Association, European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery) highlight clinical translation potential.
Projects at Waseda Research Institute for Science and Engineering (2024-2026) analyze high-risk type B aortic dissection using 4D-MRI and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
