Eri Itoh - 伊藤 恵理
Eri Itoh received a Ph.D. degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from The University of Tokyo, Japan, in 2007. After gaining research experiences at Eurocontrol experimental centre, Netherlands Aerospace Center NLR, NASA Ames Research Center, and Nanyang Technological University, she currently holds positions of Professor at Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology of The University of Tokyo, Professor at the Aeronautics and Astronautics Department of The University of Tokyo, and Chief Researcher at the Air Traffic Management Department of the Electronic Navigation Research Institute, and National Institute of Maritime, Port and Aviation Technology. Her research interests cover designing mobility systems, especially automation systems that support human operators in air traffic management, including airspace and airport operation. Combining data-driven analysis, mathematical modelings, and simulation experiments, she works toward realizing even more resilient and eco-friendly air traffic operation. She also have interests in extending these approaches into next generation mobility systems.
「空はひとつ」をモットーに、世界の空を駆けながら、航空管制・航空交通管理の研究に従事。東京大学大学院博士課程修了（航空宇宙工学専攻）。ユーロコントロール実験研究所（フランス）、オランダ航空宇宙研究所、NASAエイムズ研究所、海上・港湾・航空技術研究所 電子航法研究所、南洋理工大学などでの研究職を経て、2022年 東京大学 教授に至る。国際航空科学会議（ICAS)よりMcCarthy Award、John J.Green Award 等受賞。著書に『空の旅を科学する 人工知能が拓く！？21世紀の航空管制』（河出書房新社）、『みんなでつくるAI時代 これからの教養としてのSTEAM』（CCCメディアハウス社）、『航空交通管理システム概論』（コロナ社）がある。国内外の政府機関で国際基準や施策策定等に携わっており、アカデミアや企業等での講演やメディアを通してのアウトリーチ活動も多数行っている。 2023年4月より、東京大学 先端科学技術研究センターに『航空宇宙モビリティ』分野を立ち上げ、航空管制・航空交通管理、航空輸送を起点とした新たなモビリティシステムの開拓を目指している。

Katsuhiro Sekine is an Assistant Professor at Aerospace Mobility Lab, Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology, The University of Tokyo. He earned his Ph.D. in Engineering from Tokyo University of Science in 2025. He has focused on En-Route Arrival Management (En-Route AMAN) and its validation through Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) simulations as a JSPS Research Fellow (DC1). During his master's, he conducted research at German Aerospace Center (DLR) and visited EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre. From 2020 to 2025, he interned at Electronic Navigation Research Institute (ENRI), conducting the research on the integration of AMAN, DMAN, and SMAN. His work has contributed to decision making in Japan’s air traffic policy CARATS. He received the Tokyo University of Science Student Award in 2022. He specializes in simulation analysis and data exploration for air traffic optimization. By integrating data science tools with human expertise, he aims to realize a more robust, reliable, efficient, and sustainable air traffic management system.
「空の流れをデザインする」を旗印として、未来の輸送システムに新たな可能性を切り拓く。 東京大学先端科学技術研究センター航空宇宙モビリティ分野助教。 航空交通の効率化と運航最適化を目的としたシミュレーション分析やデータ探査を専門とする。2025年、東京理科大学大学院情報工学専攻博士後期課程修了、博士（工学）。博士課程では、日本学術振興会特別研究員（DC1）として、エンルート到着管理（En-Route AMAN）の制御手法開発と、ヒューマン・イン・ザ・ループシミュレーションによる実運用検証を実施。2019年、トビタテ！留学JAPAN第10期生としてドイツ航空宇宙センター（DLR）に半年間研究留学し、EUROCONTROLも短期訪問。2020～2025年、電子航法研究所の長期インターンに参加し、AMAN/DMAN/SMAN統合運用の研究に従事。その成果は日本の航空交通施策CARATSに反映され、国内実装の意思決定に貢献。2022年、東京理科大学学生表彰を受賞。データ科学のツールとヒトの専門的知識を融合し、より堅牢で信頼性の高い、効率的かつ持続可能な航空輸送システムの実現を目指す。
