The Global-Local Management Lab studies the management issues that accompany globalization. Its main research question is how firms that were previously local build new competitive advantages when they change the regions where they operate and expand their business overseas. The lab also addresses the possibility that competition with foreign firms and accumulated experience in overseas business change a firm's basic way of thinking and behavior. Its keywords are business strategy, business organization, global management, and technology management.
Ryuji Yoshida, Professor

The Complex Systems Meteorology Lab is the lab of Professor Ryuji Yoshida, whose fields of research are meteorology and climatology. The lab works to improve, using data from laboratory experiments, how the processes of cloud formation and dissipation are represented, since these play a major role in numerical typhoon simulation. It also studies how the concentration of hygroscopic aerosols affects typhoons and develops seeding methods to weaken typhoons. Professor Yoshida also holds a concurrent professorship at the Typhoon Science and Technology Research Center of the Institute of Advanced Sciences.

The Socio-Ecological Informatics Lab studies how ecosystems and society are formed and how they interact with each other. Without limiting itself to particular methods or study organisms, the lab collects diverse information and uses data analysis to examine how biodiversity and cultural diversity change over time and space. The lab also works on biodiversity monitoring using environmental DNA (DNA derived from organisms and floating in water), as well as surveys of the connections between giant trees and people and of people's values toward nature.

The Plankton Ecological Engineering Lab studies how plankton, seaweed, and corals live in the sea, and applies that knowledge to technologies for environmental restoration and fisheries. To understand marine organisms and their ecology, the lab conducts field observations and experiments. The lab also develops technologies that put plankton to use in the real world, aiming to contribute to building a sustainable, circular society. Centered on Sagami Bay, the lab studies seaweed beds, coral communities, and more.

The Risk Psychology Lab studies the psychological mechanisms by which people perceive risk. Around us are risks from the natural environment, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, as well as risks involving humans, such as traffic accidents and crime. In global social issues such as climate change, the lab explores forms of communication that allow people with different values and positions to talk and cooperate better. Through such proposals, the lab aims to help overcome social divisions and solve problems.

The Environmental and Disaster Risk Education Lab conducts research aimed at reducing the climate change risks faced by local communities. Its main research focus is climate change education in higher education in the South Pacific. The lab investigates how climate change education affects the resilience of local communities.

The Interaction Ecology Lab studies how interactions among organisms change depending on place and environment. It investigates what kinds of interactions between organisms arise from differences in environment and evolutionary history, and how these interactions lead to variation and evolution in organisms' ecology and reproduction. The keywords of its research are plant-insect interactions, defense against herbivory, pollinating and herbivorous insects, and geographic variation. The lab wants to deepen understanding of how organisms respond, and how their relationships change, in cities, where the environment changes dramatically and varies widely.

The Complex Systems Ecology Lab studies how complex ecosystems come into being and are maintained. Using methods such as mathematical models, simulations, and time series analysis, it also works on how to achieve prediction and control of ecosystems. The lab aims to build new ecological theory that can be tested directly against observational data. The lab's website is the personal webpage of Associate Professor Kazutaka Kawatsu.

The Intellectual Property, Information Goods, and Legal Systems Lab focuses on intellectual property and on valuable, useful information (information goods), and studies what legal systems suited to the present and future should look like. Society as a whole may benefit more when information can be used freely. On the other hand, creating information often requires effort, money, and time, and there are calls for protection in order to encourage its creation. The lab invites others to use legal thinking as a tool to take on, together, questions that may not have a single right answer.
Kumiko Inui, Professor

Kumiko Inui Studio is a studio that considers, together with cities and architecture, the mechanisms that underpin everyday life. Rather than focusing on backbone-scale systems spread across the country, it works with mechanisms that serve as infrastructure within areas of moderate extent. It begins by researching "small landscapes," the traces of people's autonomous activities and consideration, and identifying the infrastructure that lies behind them. At Y-GSA, students belong not to a lab but to a place of learning called a studio.
