経歴

Prof. Kazuhiko MOJI

I graduated from the University of Tokyo (UT) in 1976 (BSc. in Health Sciences).

Then, I was in UT until I am 34 as a research student in the department of human ecology (1976-1978), a master course student (1978-1980), a PhD student (1980-1983), and a research associate (1983-1987).

 

I joined Nagasaki University in 1987, as an associate professor of public health at School of Medicine, then as a professor of community health at School of Allied Medical Sciences in 1999. From 2002, I moved to the Institute of Tropical Medicine (NEKKEN) as a professor at the Research Center for Tropical Infectious Diseases (RECTID).

 

Between 2007 and 2013, I was in Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (RIHN), Kyoto, as a project leader of “The RIHN Ecohealth project: Environmental Change and Infectious Diseases in Tropical Asia. After the RIHN Ecohealth project, I joined again to Nagasaki University, being professor and dean of the Graduate School of International Health Development, which is the precursor of this School of Tropical Medicine and Global Health (TMGH)

研究領域

I have been studying human ecology of people living in various environments in Asia, Africa and South America. Based on intensive field work in rural communities, I studied demographic events (death, pregnancy, birth and in/out migration), time-allocation of human activities, their interaction with environment, food acquisition, diet, energy and nutrient intake, and energy output. Then, I started to study health ecology of parasitic diseases such as schistosomiasis haematobium in Kenya, malaria in Indonesia and Lao P.D.R. and liver fluke infection in Lao P.D.R. I have been interested in ecohealth/human ecology approaches (non-pharmaceutical approaches) to reduce the burden of these parasitic diseases and to accelerate health transition.

メッセージ

この世の中は矛盾と不条理に満ちています。もし，皆さんがアフリカや熱帯アジアの貧しい家庭に生まれたと想像してみてください。どうやって生き延び，病気から逃れ，何を食べて何をして生きていくことができるでしょうか。学校にも行けず字も読めなければ，どうやって社会からさげすまれずに生きていくことができるのでしょうか。「彼らは生きているだけで偉い，それに比べれば自分は恵まれた環境の中で何をしているのだろうか？」と思うことがグローバルヘルスの出発点だと思います。私たちは，学び考えることによって自分を有為な人材にし，持ち場ごとに自分の責務を果たしていくしかありません。そのために，熱帯医学・グローバルヘルス研究科を教員と学生が協力して教育，研究，実践を推進する意義のある場にしていきたいと考えています。
