ProfessorMy research focuses on the construction of an economic theory on sustainability that encompasses both capital bases and throughput resources. Also, I have been working on research activities to provide information on sustainability at the local government level to support policy formulation through a back-casting approach. This includes visualizing the impact of population decline and understanding the potential for decarbonization.
Motto in Research or in Life: Let’s do it. Things will work out.
Hobby / Holiday: Ultra Marathon, Journey Run

Associate ProfessorThe “intestinal mucosa” serves not only as a site for digestion and absorption, but also plays a crucial role in biological regulation, including the immune system. Through research on intestinal mucosal immunity, we are making efforts to establish treatments for diseases such as fibrotic and allergic diseases (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease and food allergy), which can result in multi-organ failure. Furthermore, in recent years, intestinal bacteria capable of crossing the intestinal barrier and infecting and translocating extra-intestinal organs have been regarded as the potential “causes of various diseases.” Therefore, we are conducting research aimed to identify and control pathogenic commensal bacteria. Our ongoing immunological research is progressing diligently and steadily.
Recent Topics of Interest: Organ axis, Pathogenic commensal bacteria, Peripheral immune education, Inflammatory bowel disease

Graduate School of Engineering / Center for Aerial Intelligent Vehicles, Chiba University
Professor, DirectorI am dedicated to extracting the diversity, optimality, and robustness of biological movements to explore the fundamental principles of biomechanics and understand the distinctive forms, structures, functions, and systems exhibited by living organisms. By advocating the B3 (biomechanics, biomimetics, and bioinspiration) strategy, which involves imitating and norming these principles, I aim to foster the creation of Bio-inspired Engineering. This approach drives sustainable IoT technology innovation based on energy-saving and resource-saving manufacturing, facilitating the development of products that conserve energy and resources.
Recent Topics of Interest: Biomechanics, Biomimetics, Bio-inspired engineering
Motto in Research or in Life: Learn from nature
Hobby / Holiday: Travelling to experience nature and history
Graduate School of Science, Chiba University
ProfessorI have a keen interest in exploring the solutions known as solitons in dispersive nonlinear partial differential equations. These equations describe a wide range of physical phenomena. However, in real-world scenarios, various disturbances arise, making soliton stability crucial for their practical observability. My research focuses on exploring the mathematical aspects of soliton stability.
Recent Topics of Interest:
I am interested in understanding the asymptotic stability of a type of topological solitons (topological defect) known as ‘kinks.’
Motto in Research or in Life: Gain insights about what interests me.
Hobby / Holiday: Jogging, Cycling
Medical Mycology Research Center, Chiba University
Assistant ProfessorI am conducting research on the diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections. My specific focus is on overcoming drug resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus, the causative agent of pulmonary aspergillosis, using the preserved strains (clinical isolates and environmental isolates) of the Medical Mycology Research Center, Chiba University.
Recent Topics of Interest:
Learn about the process of drug resistance development, consider effective treatment strategies, and focus on preventing the emergence of drug resistance.
Motto in Research or in Life:
Constant dripping wears away a stone.
Hobby / Holiday:
Taking a walk, listening to music
Graduate School of Engineering, Chiba University
ProfessorI am dedicated to addressing issues related to the safety of infrastructure facilities, particularly lifeline systems such as roads, water, and gas, in response to natural disasters including earthquakes, with the goal of mitigating their impact.
Recent Topics of Interests:
Anomaly detection and maintenance management of lifeline systems
Motto in Research or in Life:
I often find myself regretting and reflecting on many things, but I do my best to move past them as soon as possible.
Hobby/Holiday:
I haven’t been able to do it much lately, but I enjoy playing amateur baseball and watching professional baseball games.

ProfessorA quarter of a century has passed since I obtained my Doctor of Engineering degree in 1996 and embarked on my career as a researcher. In contemporary terms, I have been engaged in research activities aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through collaborations with various industries, I have gained numerous learning opportunities.
Recent Topics of Interests:
Urban mine recycling, especially focused on precious metals and rare metals. Creation of a carbon-neutral society.
Motto in Research or in Life:
It's often preferable to take action and potentially fail rather than live with the regret of not having tried at all.
Hobby / Holiday:
Golf, Mahjong, Mountain Climbing. I try to make time for enjoying those hobbies as much as possible in order to extend healthy life expectancy.
Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University
Professor and DeanI am conducting fundamental medical research on the regulation of sugar and energy metabolism. My primary research interests lie in investigating inter-organ networks and intracellular signal pathways. Specifically, I am exploring innovative treatments for conditions such as diabetes, obesity, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Additionally, I actively contribute to promoting research in the field of disaster medicine, with the ultimate goal of fostering a resilient society that can effectively protect people's health during and after emergencies and disasters.
Motto in Research or in Life:
Necessity is the mother of invention. Where there's a will, there's a way. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
