I have completed my doctoral studies and obtained a Ph.D. degree at the University of Tokyo. I also belonged to Division of Science at National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. Using both observational and theoretical methods, I studied star formation and especially focused on the triggered star formation mechanism through numerical simulations. My supervisor was AP Fumitaka Nakamura.
