Teppei Yoshida, Professor
1 student voices
The Yoshida Lab uses photoemission spectroscopy to study the electronic states of materials with strong electron correlations, such as high-temperature superconductors and materials that undergo metal-insulator transitions. More than 35 years after their discovery, the mechanism by which copper-oxide high-temperature superconductors become superconducting has still not been elucidated. Using synchrotron radiation facilities and laboratory light sources, the lab extracts electrons directly from materials and examines them. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Materials Science Course to carry out their graduation research (in graduate school, the Materials Science Course of the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Kanto Nishikawa, Professor
1 student voices
The Kyoto University Herpetology Lab (Nishikawa Lab) studies the natural history of small animals such as amphibians and reptiles. Focusing on amphibian systematics, biogeography, and natural history, the lab conducts fieldwork in the mountains and forests of Asia and also works on the conservation of the Japanese giant salamander. Undergraduates join the Earth and Life Environment Course to carry out their graduation research. For graduate school, students can enter either the Earth and Life Environment Course in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies, or the Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies (the Division of Environmental Management for the master's program and the Division of Global Environmental Studies for the doctoral program).
Tatsuro Egawa, Associate Professor

The lab studies, at the molecular and cellular levels, the mechanisms by which skeletal muscle changes through exercise, aging, nutrient intake, and other factors. Starting from familiar questions such as "Why is exercise good for health?" and "Why do muscles weaken with age?", the lab takes on the mysteries of exercise and muscle. Centered on aging and glycation stress, the lab examines mechanisms that hinder skeletal muscle adaptation to exercise, as well as food components and physical stimuli for people who find exercise difficult. Beginning with elucidating the molecular mechanisms of skeletal muscle adaptation, the lab aims to realize a society in which everyone can enjoy sports.
Takashi Tsukiura, Professor
1 student voices
The Tsukiura Lab studies how human memory, particularly episodic memory, is supported in the brain. The aim of the research is to use neuroscience to clarify the mental functions of memory: taking in information, then recalling and using it. The lab combines functional brain imaging such as fMRI, neuropsychological methods with patients who have brain damage, and experimental psychology methods with healthy participants. It also investigates how emotion, reward, and interactions with others affect memory, and how memory changes with aging.
Tadayoshi Adachi, Professor
0 student voices
The Adachi Lab studies mathematical physics, in particular partial differential equations using methods of functional analysis. Its main subject is the Schrödinger equation, the fundamental equation of quantum mechanics, and the lab investigates how its solutions behave over time. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out graduation research there (at the graduate level, this is the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Naomasa Ueki, Professor
0 student voices
The lab specializes in stochastic analysis, aiming to understand the laws of physical phenomena occurring in disordered media through mathematically rigorous reasoning. It investigates the properties of the mathematical models that describe these phenomena by combining operator analysis and Fourier analysis with methods of stochastic analysis. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out their graduation research there (in the graduate school, the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Masashi Kisaka, Professor
0 student voices
The lab studies dynamical systems theory, particularly complex dynamics. It investigates the behavior that arises when polynomials, rational functions, and transcendental entire functions are applied repeatedly, using methods from complex analysis, topology, and ergodic theory. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out their graduation research there (in the graduate school, the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Hiroki Sumi, Professor
0 student voices
The lab studies systems that change over time according to fixed rules (dynamical systems), as well as random dynamical systems, in which those rules change probabilistically. In random dynamical systems, many new phenomena that do not occur when the rule is fixed have been found, and they are attracting attention from mathematics and nonlinear physics. Undergraduate students are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out their graduation research there (in the graduate school, the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
DEBRECHT Matthew, Professor
0 student voices
The Debrecht Lab works in mathematical logic, topology, the theory of computation, and machine learning. Its main papers deal with topological spaces that admit computation (computable topology) and with quasi-Polish spaces. Undergraduates are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out graduation research there (for graduate students, this is the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
Hirohisa Hioki, Professor
0 student voices
The Hioki Lab studies media information processing and information visualization, with a focus on data hiding. Data hiding is a technique for concealing and embedding other data in images, audio, and similar content, and it is expected to be applied to areas such as copyright protection. Undergraduates are assigned to the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences and carry out graduation research there (for graduate students, this is the Division of Mathematical and Information Sciences in the Department of Human and Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies).
