Introduction of Speakers

Ayaka Shoda

I loved planetariums, and spent my childhood with a keen interest in the beginning of the universe and black holes, and went straight into space research when I was a student. After that, I realized that "making things is fun, too," and changed careers. Even today, I still have problems, but the axis of thinking in Science that I learned at the Faculty of Science always supports me. In my lecture, I would like to introduce my experiences as both a university researcher and a corporate researcher, and talk about how what I learned at university has been utilized in my life today.

We live in a spiral galaxy. This is because the Milky Way Galaxy, where our solar system is located, is considered to be a spiral galaxy. And there are many other spiral galaxies in the universe besides the Milky Way. I will introduce the latest results on how such spiral galaxies were formed and what is happening in them. I will also talk about how I came to study spiral galaxies.
