Doctor Takahiro Nakashima

After completing my interventional cardiology fellowship in Japan, I dedicated from 2016 to working in the cardiovascular intensive care unit, where I treated patients with cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest. In 2020, I joined the University of Michigan, where I became involved in large animal experiments focused on mechanical circulatory support. Since 2025, I have been based at Kumamoto University in Japan. I have authored more than 50 peer-reviewed publications, centered on various aspects of cardiovascular emergencies and critical care cardiology. I have also had the honor of serving as a writing committee member for the Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) Task Force within the Japanese Resuscitation Council (JRC) guidelines in 2015, 2020, and 2025, as well as contributing to the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) guidelines in 2018.
