Biography
Kayo's first degree was in linguistics at Tokyo Woman's Christian University, and she completed her MA and PhD in applied linguistics at University of East Anglia. Having worked as a teaching associate in Japanese at the School of East Asian Studies at University of Sheffield, she joined Durham University in 2021 and currently teaches Japanese language modules in the Japanese Studies degree programme. Her research primarily centres on qualitative research into aspects of patient-/person-centred care and communication in health and social care settings, interactions between patients and professionals, clinical empathy, linguistic ethnography, face and linguistic politeness theory, and Japanese language and linguistics. Currently, she looks at contexts of rehabilitation for adults living with learning disabilities and/or autism spectrum.
