What inspired me to become a research administrator (URA)
As a curious person in nature, interaction with researchers from various fields at academic conferences and seminars made me think that I would be able to learn many more things if I would engage in supporting promising researchers rather than work on my own research. I also thought taking this path would let me contribute efficiently to the development of world technology and society.

Personal Note
When I was a graduate student, I dedicated myself to the study of the human mind. I wanted to reveal how the interaction between gene polymorphisms and environment affects people’s attitude/belief/perception through brain activities.
Now, I devote myself to support researchers at Kyoto University. During my free time, on the other hand, I enjoy going touring on my lovely partner, 隼 (Hayabusa; Suzuki’s biggest motorbike). Though there are a lot of beautiful places in Japan, if limited to Kyoto, I recommend the area between 京北 (Keihoku) and 美山 (Miyama)! Unlike central Kyoto-city, the area gives people a chance to experience an authentic feel of rural Japan.
