Career
Records of Dr Shigetaki's early career are somewhat incomplete.
Early in his career it seems he worked with new settlement colonisation teams on over 30 worlds in assisting their agricultural start-ups. As a result he is reputed to have extremely wide experience of exotica fauna, having classified over 10,000 new species personally.
There are some records of an appointment on Baldar Q7 prior to the Exterminator War - but those records were lost in the destruction of the colony in 3197.
There are some indications that he was on Disney World 3200/3201, but the records only show that he is wanted by the Disney World authorities for questioning in connection with the alleged breach of anti-vivisection laws.
From around 3202 to 3215 he may have been Head of Exotic Fauna at the Shi ar Institute of Agriculture in Q0. In 3214 he appears to have disappeared following an 'administrative misunderstanding'.
3215 Quadrant 7
Dr Shigetaki was reported as working on an investigation of alleged sentient native species known as 'mermaids' on Y26 in Quadrant 7.
3221 Colony 51
In 3221 he is reported as being one of the Founding Directors and former Deputy Head of the Agriculture Department of Colony 51, an insignificant startup colony in the out reaches of Quadrant 1.
However, relationship soon soured here, and he distanced himself from the colony under something of a cloud and has not been heard of since 3222.
Family
The Doctor has no family in Colony 51, although it is thought that his relationship with his long-term personal assistant Dr Razmazov is very close on a personal level.
He is also very close to his pet Bowman’s Wolf, Frankie.
