Messages to Students

Come and let's talk! I'm actually researching with a lot of students. The topics are as follows.

Transportation (i.e., automobile choice, self-driving, mode choice using discrete choice, etc.)
Energy economics (i.e., policy evaluation, consumer behavior simulation, etc.)
Public Health (i.e., estimating financial values of public health, using satellite data)
Firm Behavior (ESG and how ESG is connected to corporate profits, etc.)

Besides these topics, I am also conducting research/involved in projects in environmental economics general. Therefore, please feel free to contact me via email if you are interested. I would like to help you while talking about various things, including research topics.

Please do not hesitate to contact me!
