My responsibility
Software development for CellPathfinder and SS2000.
My customers
Those who are screening mainly in pharmaceutical companies or academia, especially doing cancer or regenerative medicine research.
Customers’ challenge
Correctly evaluate the state of cells without staining samples. Observing infrequently occurring events (e.g. CTCs) without missing them.
What Yokogawa offers
High-content analysis system that allows bright field images to be captured without staining CE Bright Field samples.
My Commitment
I was determined to create a new technology that goes beyond Yokogawa’s then-current technological strength, confocal technology, and realizes bright field view analysis. I wanted to create new values with technology that can evaluate living biology properly with precise analysis without any blind spot.
Giving shape to an idea and creating something that really work is exiting, but more difficult than one might imagine. In the implementation process, things often do not turn out the way we want. At such times, I respond without hesitation and step forward trusting my intuition, not afraid of changes.
To be able to do that I put feelers out, accumulate information and knowledge, and communicate with team members.
Making sure to take a careful process, and deliver surprises that exceed expectations while ensuring quality.
Biotechnology will change the world for the next 20-30 years, bringing disruptive changes in Pharma and F&B industries that directly affect people's health and well-being.
It is essential to create synergies by linking R&D and production. I believe that software is an essential part of this. I want to create a new story towards the future by linking software, technologies and people.
Yokogawa Life Business Vision
Yokogawa LIFE Business established its vision and is working diligently to realize it. I feel my work is truly connected to the realization of the Yokogawa Life Business Vision.
We will lead the world
in advancing “Bio Industrial Autonomy (BIA)”, and
contribute to a future embracing global harmony.
Realizing the LIFE Business Vision means changing people's lives and putting smiles on their faces. Working for Yokogawa is in a way contributing to societal good for me. I was just an employee thinking I’m nothing but a code writer, but now I feel like I’m weaving this big story for brighter future and happier life for human being. It makes me proud and want to put more effort.
Yokogawa’s Solution
The intuitive, easy-to-use interface guides the user from analyzing thousands of image data in various angles to visualize the result by generating numerous graph types. In addition, the Machine Learning and Deep Learning function increase the target recognition capability dramatically. It is also ideal for the analysis with the complexity and high-degree-of-difficulty such as analyzing the data from
