About

Eisuke Nakazawa is a leading voice at the intersection of bioethics, nursing practice, and emerging technologies. His research critically examines the ethical frameworks required as robotics and artificial intelligence become increasingly integrated into healthcare. Nakazawa’s most cited work, “Possibilities and ethical issues of entrusting nursing tasks to robots and artificial intelligence” (2023, 42 citations), pioneers a vital conversation about the limits of automation in caregiving, arguing that certain human-centered aspects of nursing must remain beyond the reach of machines. He further extends this inquiry into global ethics with “Bridging East-West Differences in Ethics Guidance for AI and Robotics” (2022, 31 citations), where he uses Japan as a case study to challenge simplistic cultural dichotomies and advocate for more nuanced, internationally collaborative governance of AI. By synthesizing Eastern philosophical traditions with Western ethical principles, Nakazawa offers a unique and essential perspective for developing responsible AI policies. His work is indispensable for students and researchers navigating the profound moral questions raised by a future where humans and intelligent machines must coexist in the most sensitive of settings.
