Miyagawa, Shoko

Professor, Faculty of Nursing and Medical Care, Graduate School of Health Management, Keio University. Specializes in health informatics, nursing informatics, and disaster informatics. Her research focuses on how information is generated, circulated, and utilized across healthcare settings, from routine care to disaster health and welfare response. In care engineering, she develops care products driven by clinical needs using tools such as 3D printers. Through interdisciplinary collaboration with engineering researchers, this work extends to the development of soft robotics simulators for excretory care training and the visualization of tacit nursing knowledge using sensing technologies and machine learning. In public health nursing, she studies GIS-based community assessment education and digital transformation in public health nurse training. Her disaster research, grounded in approximately 30 years of field experience since the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, examines information handoff challenges during evacuation phase transitions and the design of health/medical/welfare information coordination systems, drawing on fieldwork and qualitative methods. She teaches nursing informatics, IT literacy, research methods, and AI ethics, and pursues international collaborations in nursing AI and digital health. Selected Publications 1.
