We are excited to announce that Ph.D. Kentaro Urata joined our laboratory as Assistant Professor in March 2025! He finished the doctoral candidate course of Tokyo Tech at our laboratory in 2018, and now he’s back after 7-years work for a company.

With his enthusiasm, dedication, and fresh perspectives, he’s sure to bring new energy to our laboratory in the field of research and education. He has already established a new friendship with our students, and to celebrate his return, we had a welcome pizza lunch!

We look forward to working together and making our lab even better. Welcome, Dr. Urata!
