Welcome to Oshikawa group
We study condensed matter theory and statistical physics.
Our group started at ISSP on April 1st, 2006, moving from Department of Physics, Tokyo Institute of Technology.
We thank all the people who supported our research while we were at Tokyo Institute of Technology.
At ISSP, we hope to further extend collaborative relationship with colleagues all over the world.
