A framework for developing university policies on generative AI governance: A cross-national comparative study
As generative AI (GAI) becomes increasingly embedded in higher education, universities worldwide are developing policies to govern its ethical, pedagogical, and institutional use. However, these policies vary across national and institutional contexts. We undertake a cross-national analysis of GAI guidelines issued by leading universities in the United States, Japan, and China, identifying key policy orientations and proposing a structured framew…
Reframing rights, culture, and health: Unpacking global dynamics in the sexuality education literature
Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) has become a key international framework for addressing young people's sexual and reproductive health, rights and wellbeing. Promoted by United Nations agencies, CSE is informed by universal principles of human rights and gender equality, while also emphasising cultural sensitivity and local adaptation. However, the relationship between these universal frameworks and diverse local contexts remains contested…
Comprehensive horizons: Examining Japan’s national and regional sexuality education curricula
Comprehensive Sexuality Education has been acknowledged globally for its role in advancing young people's Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights. Yet, notable variation exists in definitions and interpretations of what comprehensive means, exposing tensions between international and local values and agendas. This research focused on the situation in Japan, which is largely perceived as 'lagging behind' international standards in terms of its s…
Patient involvement in priority-setting for medical research: A mini review of initiatives in the rare disease field
Patient involvement (PI) in determining medical research priorities is an important way to ensure that limited research funds are allocated to best serve patients. As a disease area for which research funds are limited, we see a particular utility for PI in priority-setting for medical research on rare diseases. In this review, we argue that PI initiatives are an important form of evidence for policymaking. We conducted a study to identify the ex…

It reveals how the marriage migrants navigate the intricacies and trajectories of their marriages with Japanese people while living in Japan. Seen from the lens of 'gendered geographies of power', the book expl…
Dynamic Consent: An Evaluation and Reporting Framework
Dynamic consent (DC) is an approach to consent that enables people, through an interactive digital interface, to make granular decisions about their ongoing participation. This approach has been explored within biomedical research, in fields such as biobanking and genomics, where ongoing contact is required with participants. It is posited that DC can enhance decisional autonomy and improve researcher-participant communication. Currently, there i…
From structured invisibility to visibility: Is Japan really going to accept multiethnic, multicultural identities
Recent changes to immigration and registration laws represent a profound shift in official imaginings of the relationship between Japanese and non-Japanese residents point to the possibility of real change occuring in the way that with those with different nationalities/ethnicities live together in the same physical and cultural space here in Japan. In this paper, I focus on and offer an interpretation of these changes in the light of hitherto le…
