Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolToshiya Namikawa is a Project Assistant Professor and cosmology researcher with nine years of experience developing data-analysis methodologies and public tools for cosmological inference. He has led CMB and large-scale structure analysis projects at institutions including the Kavli IPMU (University of Tokyo), University of Cambridge, and Stanford, combining theoretical training (Ph.D. in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics) with hands-on programming. His work emphasizes practical, open-access software for the community—see his public clpdoc tools—and spans CMB polarization, CMB–galaxy synergies, and gravitational-wave source clustering. Based in Chiba, Japan, he bridges deep theoretical insight and reproducible computational pipelines, often leading cross-institutional teams to turn complex astrophysical signals into robust constraints.
