Comments from Assistant Professor Kou Li
“It is an immense honor to have our research highlighted in this way. 'Technology and science centered on sensing' is the very foundation of my research. Encouraged by this recognition, I am committed to continuing my utmost efforts to contribute, however I can, to the advancement of this field and to the research and education at our university.

While this highlight recognizes the achievements and future potential of our work, this honor would not have been possible through my efforts alone. In particular, this paper is the fruit of the tireless dedication of several key individuals, led by Miki Kubota (master’s student, Program in Electrical, Electronic, and Communication Engineering).

I would like to express my deepest gratitude once again to my longtime collaborators, including Professor Yukio Kawano (Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Communication Engineering, Faculty of Science and Engineering) and Dr. Daichi Suzuki of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). My thanks also go to the faculty and staff of the Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Communication Engineering, as well as everyone in the Faculty of Science and Engineering for their daily guidance and support.

Finally, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the members of my research group—students, technical assistants, and administrative staff—who support our work with perseverance even through failures and challenges. Most importantly, I offer my deepest gratitude to my family for their unwavering support.”
