I am a professor at the Faculty of Humanities and Human Sciences and director of the Center for Human Nature, Artificial Intelligence, and Neuroscience (CHAIN) at Hokkaido University. My research areas include phenomenology, philosophy of consciousness, and Japanese philosophy. My research focuses on phenomenological analyses and enactive approaches to the problems of consciousness, self, ego, and intersubjectivity.  I am also involved in various joint research projects with neuroscientists, cognitive scientists, psychiatrists, robotics researchers, and mathematicians. My current project is to establish a 'phenomenology of mediation.'
