  🎓  Education and Academic Achievements

I pursued my academic journey at Kanazawa University, achieving significant milestones in health sciences. I completed a Doctoral Level Section of Integrated Course from the Graduate School of Medical Sciences (2018-2021), following a Master’s Level Section of Integrated Course (2016-2018). Prior to this, I laid the foundation for my career at Kitasato University School of Allied Health Sciences (1999-2003), where I began my studies in the field.

📝Original Papers

My research contributions are reflected in several notable publications. Among them, I authored papers such as “Functional Assessment of Lumbar Nerve Roots Using Direct Coronal Single-Shot Turbo Spin-Echo Diffusion Tensor Imaging” published in Magnetic Resonance in Medical Sciences (May 2020), and “Distortion-free diffusion tensor imaging for evaluation of lumbar nerve roots” in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (June 2018). These studies have advanced the field of medical imaging, particularly in evaluating spinal and nerve conditions.

🌐 Research, Innovations, and Extension Activities

My work focuses on pioneering quantitative evaluation and imaging innovations. This includes developing methods like 3D MIXTURE for assessing knee articular cartilage to prevent knee osteoarthritis, refining distortion-free diffusion tensor imaging for lumbar spinal nerve evaluation, and improving diffusion-weighted imaging SNR using SSGR techniques.

🏆 Awards and Recognition

I have been honored with a total of seven awards and have served as an invited speaker or resource person at 20 events. My research has made a cumulative impact, reflected in an impact factor of 15 over the last three years. Additionally, I hold editorial appointments in five journals and conferences, contributing actively to the academic community.

 🌐 Professional Affiliations and Contributions

As a member of various professional bodies, I have organized 10 research conferences and workshops and collaborated extensively on 24 joint publications and projects. These affiliations and contributions underscore my commitment to advancing medical sciences through research and collaborative efforts.

📚 Education and Research Highlights

In addition to his academic achievements, Chaohe Zheng has developed industrial-scale solutions for chemical looping combustion and waste treatment. His research innovations have significantly influenced the design and operational strategies of oxygen carriers, enhancing their performance and longevity while minimizing environmental impact.
