Educational Background: After studying at Kyoto University, the University of Tokyo, and the London School of Economics, I obtained a Ph.D. in Economics from the Graduate School of Economics at the University of Tokyo.

Professional Experience: I have held positions at the Innovation Research Center at Hitotsubashi University, the Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Kyoto University, the NUCB Business School, and the Faculty of Economics at Wakayama University. I have been in my current role since April 2025. Additionally, I serve as a Visiting Senior Researcher at the Investment in Equipment Research Institute of the Development Bank of Japan.

In my research, I believe that by examining the probability and statistical distributions that arise from various phenomena, both natural and social, we can better understand the underlying mechanisms at play. I conduct statistical analyses on multiple indicators and their distributions, including BMI, sleep, smoking, income, the number of televisions, and exercise performance. Through this process, I aim to uncover hidden factors that may influence these variables, which are not yet widely recognized.

In my teaching, I prioritize student output and strive to support their proactive activities, such as study groups and applications for public competitions and contests. My lectures also emphasize encouraging students’ independent thinking, participation, and dialogue.

University provides freedom, but I hope students do not merely immerse themselves in it out of inertia. Instead, I encourage them to adopt the spirit of “study hard, play hard” and participate in activities openly until they are exhausted.
