About Our Lab

In our laboratory, we conduct research activities in groups and individually based on self-designed brain measurement experiments. We use non-invasive methods such as magnetoencephalography (MEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure brain activity. Since neuroscience is an interdisciplinary field and therefore requires a variety of background knowledge, we provide an in-depth study of the mechanisms of the brain as well as related fields such as engineering, physiology, psychology, and computational theory. If you want to study brain function measurement, brain information analysis, and biological signal processing, this is the laboratory for you.

In the first half of our seminar meeting, students present papers and book chapters, and in the second half, we give lectures on measurement and analysis methods of brain information, create and analyze sensory stimuli to be used in experiments, discuss group research, and present the progress of the group and individual researches. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to attend the seminar (brain[at]sfc.keio.ac.jp).

Our Environment

In our laboratory, we are able to use the most advanced brain measurement devices. For example, we use magnetoencephalography (MEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at an external institution (e.g., Chiba Research Center, Tokyo Denki University, where the faculty member in charge was the MEG maintenance supervisor). It is a great privilege to have access to these facilities as an undergraduate student.

For Applicants

We accept students from other universities, other departments and other laboratories at any time. If you are interested in brain research, please feel free to contact us (brain[at]sfc.keio.ac.jp) if you are thinking of continuing your studies or have any questions.
