Research fellow
Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology
I am a research fellow of JSPS in the Micro/Bio/Nanofluidics Unit (Prof. Amy Shen's Unit) at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), Japan. In March 2024, I received my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Mechanical Systems Engineering of the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT). My Ph.D. supervisor was Prof. Yoshiyuki Tagawa. My interest lies in the field of multiphase flows, particularly droplets. I'm researching droplet impacts on soft substrates and the resulting stress fields in those substrates. Additionally, I am developing a method to measure stress fields in both solid and liquid mediums using birefringence phenomena.
