Message from the program director (PD)

GX Frontier PD:Mika Goto

My field of expertise is energy economics. To efficiently utilize clean and sufficient energy, we need technological innovation grounded in engineering and the natural sciences. At the same time, realizing the full societal benefit of these technologies depends on advancing research in economic and social systems. Science Tokyo is home to many researchers with proven excellence across these domains. Through our Visionary Initiative, we unite diverse expertise under a shared vision to pioneer the frontier of green transformation—building a society where people can live healthy, comfortable lives in harmony with the planet.
