Professor My laboratory is pursuing environmental prediction research, with a focus on various Earth environmental phenomena such as meteorological and hydrological events. I strive to advance the boundaries of this field by integrating Earth observation satellites and employing diverse prediction methods. Specifically, I am committed to enhancing and refining weather forecasts for extended periods of several weeks, and gaining a comprehensive understanding of the long-term impact of climate change on the water resource environment over a century.
To achieve my prediction refinement goals, I employ numerical simulations powered by state-of-the-art supercomputers and harness the potential of machine learning techniques. I will facilitate the fusion of forecast and observation data through statistical mathematics, including data assimilation. My ambition is to pioneer a groundbreaking environmental prediction science by conducting interdisciplinary research that spans earth science, computational science, and statistical mathematics.
Recent Topics of Interest:
Seasonal forecasting, Weather control, Social consensus building, and Optimization of observation location
Motto in Research or in Life:
The good is the enemy of the best.
Before you can inspire with emotion, you must be swamped with it yourself. Before you can move their tears, your own must flow. To convince them, you must yourself, believe.

Faculty of Education, Chiba University
ProfessorWith a focus on international expansion, I am developing teaching materials for physics experiment education.
My aim is to create sustainable and simple physics experiment teaching materials suitable for various environments in Asian countries. These materials will include simulations as resources for analyzing daily-life physical phenomena with non-uniformly distributed forces, as well as science-educational activities related to handmade toys and devices with inhomogeneous electromagnetic fields or transients in electrical circuits.
Recent Topics of Interests:
Improving physics education in developing countries, Finite element method simulation, Electrical circuit simulation
Motto in Research or in Life:
Use all of your abilities and resources to do your best.

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
