Tetsuo Miura

Specially Appointed Researcher, Center for Clinical Sciences, National Center for Global Health and Medicine

I worked as a product and business development manager primarily in the fields of diagnostic equipment-reagent systems and medical devices at major foreign pharmaceutical and domestic medical device companies, and also participated in global product development teams at the US and French headquarters. I have medical science knowledge in the fields of infectious diseases, immunology, cardiovascular diseases, metabolism, reproductive medicine, and laboratory medicine, as well as information on the medical field. After mandatory retirement, I served as a senior researcher at the National Center for Global Health and Medicine, responsible for developing and implementing international collaborative clinical research and clinical trials for pharmaceuticals and medical devices with clinical trial networks in Southeast Asian countries. Currently, as part of an industrial-medical collaboration project, I also provide guidance and support to companies in product development with an eye toward exit strategies such as obtaining pharmaceutical or WHO PQ approval, and being included in guidelines in cooperation with related medical sectors and societies.
