Assistant ProfessorThrough the development of advanced measurement methods based on positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS)—a non-destructive and highly sensitive technique for detecting open-volume defects in materials—I investigate the formation of hydrogen-related defects and their role in the hydrogen embrittlement of metals. My aim is to elucidate this mechanism at the atomic level, thereby promoting the development of hydrogen-resistant materials for use in hydrogen energy infrastructure. This research will support the wider adoption of hydrogen energy and contribute to achieving clean energy goals.
In addition, I am engaged in research on evaluating the pharmaceutical stability of complex lyophilized formulations through free-volume measurements using PAS.
Recent Topics of Interest:
• Hydrogen-induced defects in metals and alloys
• Pharmaceutical stability of complex lyophilized formulations

Associate ProfessorOne of the key relationships among living organisms is the predator-prey relationship.
While it is often assumed that prey are simply consumed by predators, they actually coexist with predators in nature. My research delves into the fascinating realm of how prey manages to coexist with predators and other organisms in their ecosystem, with a particular focus on acarids.
Recent Topics of Interests:
I am interested in the concepts of brood parasitism, cooperative conservation, and predator-prey dynamics, and predator-prey role reversals.
Motto in Research or in Life:
I’m trying to conduct research that’s easily understandable, even for those without advanced prior knowledge.
