Daisuke Tagami, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Associate Professor Daisuke Tagami's fields are applied mathematics and computational mechanics, and his research focuses on developing numerical methods for partial differential equations, error estimation, and applications to real-world problems. The lab's subjects include numerical analysis of particle methods, large-scale numerical methods for electromagnetic field problems, viscoelastic flow problems, moving boundary problems, the Navier–Stokes equations, and thermal convection problems. The lab also studies applications of the Navier–Stokes equations to the numerical computation of drag and lift, and applications of thermal convection problems to the numerical computation of glass melting.
Daniel Gaina, Associate Professor

This lab studies universal logic, which treats a wide variety of logical systems in a common framework. Using category theory as its mathematical language, the lab works on the theory of institutions, which formalizes a logical system as a combination of a signature (a collection of symbols), sentences, models, and a satisfaction relation. The lab has been involved in laying logical foundations for formal methods, which are used to write software specifications and support their verification, and in designing tools that assist with proofs. Recently, the lab has been extending its theory to hybrid systems, which combine discrete and continuous behavior, and to quantum computation.
Koji Nuida, Professor
0 student voices
Professor Koji Nuida mainly researches the mathematics of cryptography and secure computation. In addition to secure computation technologies, the professor works on evaluating the mathematical security of cryptographic techniques, including post-quantum cryptography, and on the theoretical foundations of cryptography, including how to use pseudorandom numbers. In mathematics, the professor conducts research on combinatorial group theory, including the structure theory of Coxeter groups, as well as on combinatorics and discrete mathematics.
Yasuhiko Ikematsu, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Associate Professor Yasuhiko Ikematsu researches the development of post-quantum cryptography, which is believed to be hard to break even with quantum computers. The professor is particularly interested in multivariate polynomial cryptography, which is built on the difficulty of solving systems of multivariate quadratic equations. This type of cryptography is considered a leading candidate for post-quantum cryptography. However, its large public key size and the insufficient analysis using Gröbner bases remain challenges, and the lab aims to resolve them.
Tetsuhiro Moriyama, Associate Professor

The Next-Generation Manufacturing Innovation Promotion Hub is a joint research promotion hub established by Kyushu University and Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd. in October 2025. The hub aims to resolve the uncertainty caused by reliance on manual labor in manufacturing engineering chains and supply chains. Using mathematical and information technologies such as big data, AI, and optimization, it carries out interdisciplinary research across all academic fields. Associate Professor Tetsuhiro Moriyama specializes in topology, applied topology, and industry-academia collaboration.
Masao Hirokawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Quantum Computing Research Division is a division established within the System LSI Research Center. Division head Professor Masao Hirokawa works on quantum science and technology and related research, as well as research on physical-layer data security. Associate Professor Teruo Tanimoto studies system architecture for quantum gate computers. Members of the center remain affiliated with their respective research faculties while carrying out research at the center.
Koji Inoue, Professor
0 student voices
The AI Computing Research Division is a division of the System LSI Research Center, and Professor Koji Inoue serves as its head. Professor Inoue studies computer system architecture as a foundational technology supporting the next-generation information society. The research targets computer systems that can adjust the balance among performance, energy consumption, safety, and reliability according to the usage environment and situation. The lab does not stop at simulation; it also carries out actual VLSI design. The center is an organization that makes use of Kyushu University's research faculty system, and its members remain affiliated with their existing research faculties while carrying out research at the center.
Douglas Drummond, Professor
0 student voices
Prof. Drummond specializes in cytoskeletal proteins and molecular biology at the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation. On the faculty page, the professor says that research on molecular biology and on how proteins function has many applications in medicine and agriculture. At the school, the professor teaches courses related to molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, endocrinology, and nutrition.
Mako Nakamura, Professor
0 student voices
Prof. Nakamura's lab studies the process by which skeletal muscle and smooth muscle form, using chicken muscle as its subject. At the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation, the professor is in charge of courses aimed at solving global food problems and of degree projects (graduation research) that use biological methods. The lab aims to develop technologies to increase the number of edible cuts of meat and to produce cultured meat, and it also aims to apply its findings to health science, such as maintaining muscle strength and preventing sarcopenia. Drawing on experience working overseas, the professor supports students who take on study abroad and internships, and also promotes participation in international joint research.
Johan Lauwereyns, Professor
0 student voices
Prof. Lauwereyns specializes in cognitive neuroscience and considers decision-making the most important and interesting theme in the professor's own research. The professor says the starting point is the question of how phenomena such as dreams, illusions, memory, and free will can be explained. The professor studied psychology and read philosophy books, but felt that understanding consciousness also requires considering the brain and biology, and so specialized in cognitive neuroscience. The professor says decision-making is appealing because it can bring many different perspectives together into one.
