He was born in Yamagata Prefecture in 1987 and graduated from Fukushima Medical University with an MD degree in 2012. He completed a doctoral course and earned a PhD degree in March 2024. He also enrolled in the Master of Epidemiology program at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in October 2023. Currently, Dr. Aita works as an associate professor in the Department of General Internal Medicine and Family Medicine \/ Center for General Internal Medicine and Family Medicine at Fukushima Medical University.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have trained as a general internal medicine physician in diverse medical settings, including remote areas, isolated islands, community hospitals, and a university hospital. My experiences working closely with patients in these varied environments deepened my commitment to advancing patient care and solving practical challenges in clinical medicine. This commitment led me to join the Department of Clinical Epidemiology to focus on my studies. During my time as a graduate student, I successfully published relevant clinical research addressing questions from the clinical field to a global audience, including publications in <a href=\"https:\/\/wwwnc.cdc.gov\/eid\/article\/29\/7\/23-0037_article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Emerging Infectious Diseases (2023)<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ijidonline.com\/article\/S1201-9712(23)00090-5\/fulltext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">International Journal of Infectious Diseases (2023)<\/a>. Moving forward, I aim to continue disseminating impactful research that bridges clinical practice and evidence-based solutions. Additionally, I aspire to mentor the next generation of clinical researchers by teaching and fostering skills in clinical epidemiology, contributing to a culture of inquiry and evidence-driven medicine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Academic affiliations and certifications]<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine (Fellow)<\/li>\n<li>Fellow of the American College of Physicians<\/li>\n<li>Japan Primary Care Association<\/li>\n<li>Japanese Society of Hospital General Medicine (Board Member)<\/li>\n<li>The Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases<\/li>\n<li>Society for Clinical Epidemiology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>[Residency and clinical experience]<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2012: Junior Resident, Okinawa Chubu Hospital<\/li>\n<li>2014: Department of General Internal Medicine, Okinawa Chubu Hospital<\/li>\n<li>2016: Department of General Internal Medicine, Okinawa Hokubu Hospital<\/li>\n<li>2017: Department of General Internal Medicine, Fukushima Medical University Hospital<\/li>\n<li>2024: Department of General Internal Medicine and Family Medicine<\/li>\n<li>2024: Center for General Internal Medicine and Family Medicine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5321,"template":"","position":[22],"field":[],"class_list":["post-2964","profile","type-profile","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","position-postdoc","en-US"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/2964","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/2964\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5372,"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/2964\/revisions\/5372"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5321"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2964"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"position","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position?post=2964"},{"taxonomy":"field","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/noriaki-kurita.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/field?post=2964"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
