My research centers on artificial intelligence, aiming to develop systems that enable even non-experts to make accurate diagnoses with ease.<br>\nWhile it is important to be fully committed to clinical practice, an academic perspective is essential for broadening one\u2019s horizons as a physician. Returning to the university may at first seem like a detour for a clinician; however, I am confident that it will ultimately lead to meaningful professional growth.\n        <\/p>\n      <\/section>\n\n      <div class=\"btn-container\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/researchmap.jp\/ryotarouema\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn btn-primary\"><i class=\"fas fa-play\"><\/i> View researchmap <i class=\"fas fa-external-link-alt\"><\/i>\n        <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 40px;\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp\/about\/staff\/\" class=\"btn btn-primary-outline\">\n        <i class=\"fas fa-arrow-left\"><\/i> Return to Faculty &amp; Staff\n      <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/main>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u7279\u4efb\u52a9\u6559\u6d88\u5316\u7ba1\u75c5\u68df\u526f\u4e3b\u4efb\u5e83\u5831\u30fb\u30d6\u30e9\u30f3\u30c7\u30a3\u30f3\u30b0\u59d4\u54e1\u9577 \u4e0a\u9593 \u907c\u592a\u90ce Ryotaro Uema \u5c02\u9580\u9818\u57df \u6d88\u5316\u7ba1\u764c [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":86,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"folder":[],"class_list":["post-353","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=353"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/353\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":368,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/353\/revisions\/368"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/86"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.osaka-u.ac.jp\/pub\/gh\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/folder?post=353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
