I want to make our university a place where every TU member can grow and demonstrate their diverse strength. As a black hole explore, I will continue searching for an origin of diversity in the universe. It is a mystery to see how the world had been created starting from simple particles according to the physical laws.

Lecturer Sunhee Lee (PhD.) 

Since 2022, I have been working as center faculty who is in charge with the center events/actives etc. (basically everything).
I am originally from Soul, Korea, and came to Sendai, Japan as an international student about 30 years ago. During the time of working with my PhD, I got married, had children. Now I work at the center as a full-time and also take care of my youngest.
My academic field is anthropology focusing on immigrants, gender, and multicultural issues. I will make our center to be a place for everyone to come together and share each other’s voice.

Assistant Professor Ayako Osawa

Admin Staff Machi Inomata 

I am mainly working for the Science Ambassadors Program, and taking care of our website, and challenging something new every day. I am busy working and taking care of my family, but still thinking about what I can do for developing DEI, and how to raise my child without bias. I hope I will figure it out in the near future.
