Dr. Hisao Nakai is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Nursing at the University of Kochi, specializing in disaster nursing, disaster management, and GIS‑based risk assessment. Holding a Ph.D. in Health Sciences from Kanazawa University, he has published 28 documents, which have been cited 107 times by 96 documents, resulting in an h-index of 7. His research centers on vulnerable populations—such as medically dependent children, older adults, and people with mental illness—and uses participatory ICT/IoT systems like K‑DiPS, which he helped develop, to support personalized disaster readiness, evacuation planning, power backup, and business continuity. He has applied GIS to simulate evacuation routes (e.g., for tsunamis) and assess environmental risks, especially for those with special needs. Academically, he has held roles at Kanazawa Medical University and Kochi University and has received awards including a Japanese Public Health Society poster prize. He has also led national surveys on disaster information sharing among caregivers of children requiring medical care. Through his interdisciplinary, community‑oriented work, Dr. Nakai is advancing equitable disaster resilience for people often overlooked in traditional emergency planning, combining practical applications with innovative research in disaster preparedness and nursing science.
