Keiichi Nakagawa | Department of Bioengineering, School of Engineering, The University of Tokyo

The main research interest in the Nakagawa group is to use acoustic wave as a tool to modulate the living body and cells. Based on acoustic engineering and optical engineering, we have proposed and demonstrated unique acoustic wave generators and wave modulators. We are also developing novel ultrafast imaging methods to reveal acoustic interactions with cells and tissues.

Subjects of Reseach
