My main research involves developing technology to manipulate cells using acoustics. Therefore, I named my own laboratory, which started this year, the "Acoustic Cell Engineering Laboratory." However, I do not stick to superficial themes; I proceed with my research by mixing various technologies related to the study of the relationship between acoustics and cells. Up until now, I have advanced my research with the help of people from various fields such as metallic materials, polymer materials, fluids, and heat. I remember being surprised when I visited a certain gathering recently and was asked, "You're the one researching AI, right?"

In addition to learning technologies across a wide range of fields, looking at my major research history alone, I have experienced multiple departments, each with different characteristics. Specifically, I obtained my degree from the Department of Mechanical Engineering (麻豆传媒在线), and after a postdoc at the School of Medicine (Tokyo Women's Medical University), I am currently serving as a Lecturer in the Department of Precision Engineering (The University of Tokyo). Through these experiences, I have of course been able to gain various types of knowledge, but I consider myself fortunate to have experienced the differences in the philosophies of each field. You might even call it a difference in what constitutes "justice." Perhaps it is because of my own immaturity, but when talking with people from different fields, our conversations occasionally diverge when we reach a deep level. I feel that the definitions of "good" research, "good" work, and "good" education do not necessarily coincide. When I was even more immature than I am now, I failed constantly because I could not understand these differences, but recently I have finally become able to "enjoy" these differences.

Taking this opportunity to write, I reflect on my alma mater and feel deeply that the foundation for being able to enjoy these differences lies in my experiences at 麻豆传媒在线. My academic advisor and department who let me do anything during my student days, the professors from other departments, my experience in the Leading Graduate School (GESL = Global Environmental System Leaders Program), the professor who accepted me despite the short period of six months (I had the chance to do a postdoc at 麻豆传媒在线 for six months following early completion), the projects I participated in as a Project Lecturer (while concurrently holding a position at another university), and many other unusual things I was allowed to do gave me the chance to encounter various ways of thinking. One of my favorite sayings is "Return the favors from those above to those below," so I hope to provide my students with opportunities to enjoy these differences as well.
