The lab takes on fundamental physics and introductory science education, starting from simple, basic questions.
AboutAbout the lab
From simple questions to fundamental physics
The Funahashi Fundamental Physics Lab starts from pure, simple questions about the natural sciences and aims to carry out research in fundamental physics that is broad in both its subjects and its methods.
The lab has so far conducted experimental research on elementary particles, atomic nuclei, and the universe, and is now working on research in introductory science education as a new frontier.
In 2025, the lab held a trial session of a draft class booklet and introduced Hypothesis-Experiment Classes at the national conference of the NSTA (The National Science Teaching Association).
Professor Funahashi's primary appointment is at the Institute for Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the lab accepts students through the Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies.
Key terms
- Hypothesis-Experiment Class
- A teaching method in which students learn the basics of science by following a class booklet: predicting the answer to a question, discussing it, and checking it through an experiment
- Class booklet
- The teaching material used in Hypothesis-Experiment Classes. It collects the questions, explanatory readings, and experiment procedures in the order they are covered in class
- Elementary particles
- The smallest particles that make up matter and cannot be divided any further
ResearchResearch themes
Seeking a frontier that takes on more fundamental problems arising from pure, simple questions about the natural sciences, the lab aims to carry out research in a broad range of fundamental physics. It has so far conducted experimental research on elementary particles, atomic nuclei, and the universe, and is working on research in introductory science education as a new frontier.
