Outline Activities
I have been studying on two main topics. The first topic is the social history of science and technology in modern and contemporary Japan. The second topic is the basic and applied technology policy studies. The analysis of civil nuclear energy policy has been the most important area of my historical and policy-oriented study for more than ten years.
As a member of national government committies on energy policy, I have been contributed to the reformation of energy and nuclear policy in Japan for eight years. Every year, I am in charge of lectures and seminars for graduate students and undergraduate students, including that of the 21st Century Program.
