[Japanese version<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Born in 1980 in Kanagawa Prefecture, Dr. Haga graduated from Nara Medical University in 2005 with an MD degree. In October 2023, he joined the doctoral program in the Department of Clinical Epidemiology at the Graduate School of Medicine, Fukushima Medical University.<\/p>\n

“I have dedicated my career to clinical practice, focusing primarily on pediatric critical care. Over time, I found myself increasingly confronted with unresolved questions during routine clinical work, sparking a strong interest in conducting clinical research that begins with these real-world challenges. In my tenth year as a physician, although I lacked foundational knowledge in clinical research, I embarked on my first attempt at data collection and statistical analysis. After nearly a year of effort, I completed my first English manuscript. However, when I submitted it to my mentor for review and revisions, I received no response for several years, and the manuscript remained unpublished. I realized that the quality of my work at the time was likely too low to merit constructive feedback.<\/p>\n

This experience gave me a strong determination to independently produce high-quality English manuscripts. I began learning essential clinical research skills, including study design, statistical analysis, and academic writing, through books and seminars. With this knowledge, I tackled my second English manuscript. Although I faced repeated rejections and dishearteningly harsh reviewer comments, I persevered, driven by memories of my first failed attempt and the significant effort I had invested. Finally, after 16 submissions, the paper was accepted. The joy of that achievement was indescribable and marked the beginning of my passion for clinical research.<\/p>\n

Since then, I have steadily continued publishing papers at my own pace, gradually refining my clinical research skills and gaining confidence in academic writing. However, as I took on a mentoring role for junior colleagues, I became acutely aware of the gaps in my knowledge. Learning through practice is valuable but inherently limited to the scope of one\u2019s experiences, leaving unaddressed areas leaving unaddressed areas like holes in a patchwork quilt. This realization led me to pursue systematic academic training in clinical research.<\/p>\n

With this motivation, I decided to enroll in the doctoral program in the Department of Clinical Epidemiology at this university. Building on my prior experiences, I aim to conduct and share clinical research that enhances the quality of care in critical care medicine on a global stage. Additionally, I am committed to continuous learning and growth to contribute meaningfully to advancing evidence-based practice in this field.”<\/p>\n
