Shigemi Ohta
New York and Tokyo
I graduated from University of Tokyo with a doctorate in theoretical physics. Now I work for the Institute of Particle and Nuclear Studies in the High Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) of Japan, researching hadron physics through numerical lattice quantum chromodynamics. I also teach at Sokendai Graduate University of Advanced Studies of Japan and a visiting professor at RIKEN-BNL Research Center, Brookhaven National Laboratory, in Upton, NY.
