Associate Professor / Katsuko T. NAKAHIRA
She is usually cheerful and also with both a sense of humor and intelligence. She often gives us advice from a shrewd observation. We trust her because she takes care of her students even when she is busy.

Research Content

The purpose is to scientifically understand how cognitive activity is performed in human daily behavior. In our daily activities, we analyze human cognitive behavior by collecting and analyzing data using gaze measuring instruments and simple electroencephalographs, and by constructing simulations. From data collection to analysis and evaluation, we are researching while discussing methods and contents with teachers and students.

A Day in the Lab

Since we don't have core time, we have free time to go to the laboratory and do research.We hold a seminar once a week, share the progress of each research and what we have studied with the whole laboratory, and proceed with the research by finding problems.The theme of the research is determined by the interests of the students, and if you have a problem, you can receive the support of teachers and seniors who have various knowledge.Not only research activities but also student life can be fulfilled.
