Hiroko Ichikawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Ichikawa Lab conducts behavioral and cognitive experiments with human participants, aiming to read the mind from the perspectives of psychology and behavioral science. It approaches the mind with two methods: eye tracking, which measures eye movements while people look at a target, and EEG measurement while they are looking at or thinking about something. Its research themes are wide-ranging, including interpersonal perception, music listening, and educational activities, and the lab actively carries out collaborative research with groups inside and outside the university. In supervising students, the lab's policy is to want them to develop the ability to think up their own topics, investigate them, and see them through on their own initiative.
Tomonori Suzuki, Professor
0 student voices
The Suzuki (Tomoyuki) Lab studies what kinds of microorganisms exist in the environment and what they do. Using johkasou (on-site wastewater treatment tanks), its main research subject, as a model for organic matter decomposition and material cycling in nature, the lab aims to advance microbial ecology and improve wastewater purification technology. From johkasou, the lab isolates bacterial strains that require metabolites produced by other bacteria, and investigates the relationships between strains, their metabolites, and the phylogeny of the isolates. The lab also studies photocatalytic sterilization, working to elucidate its mechanism, build new johkasou, and control fungi on the cultural properties of Nikko Toshogu Shrine.
Takashi Nakamura, Associate Professor

The Nakamura (Takashi) Lab studies zeta functions and L-functions in the field of analytic number theory. Its research falls into two main areas: explicit formulas, relations among values, and functional relations for multiple zeta functions; and the value distribution of multiple zeta functions (mainly universality). In its value-distribution research, the lab compares the behavior of functions such as the Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet L-functions on the complex plane and in function spaces, and also considers the value distribution, such as the zeros, of various multiple zeta functions.
Jin Kashiwada, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Kashiwada Lab focuses on the movement of water in rivers and studies field observation and numerical analysis techniques for understanding and predicting how the surrounding environment responds. Water carries sediment, seeds, and more to shape the river environment, and during floods it exerts great force on the surrounding environment and causes destructive change. The interactions among water, sediment, and trees and vegetation, as well as the complex exchanges among rivers, the atmosphere, and the ocean, are expected to become even more complex because of climate change. Example themes include the simultaneous occurrence of violent winds and floods during a super typhoon, the effect of trees in river channels on river flow, and image analysis of river flow velocity using fixed-viewpoint techniques.
Risa Kobayashi, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Kobayashi Lab uses spatial data as its foundation to study the structure of cities and the behavior of the people who live in them toward space. The lab believes that understanding the mechanisms behind building and using architecture and roads, and sometimes trading them, is essential for designing better urban spaces and for sustainable urban planning. Working across building theoretical frameworks, empirical analysis, and historical narrative, the lab conducts research that is useful for urban and spatial design. Example themes include empirical analysis of transfers of real estate ownership, market design for land sales, and building a quantitative economic history of cities using spatial information.
