Migakazuba Researchers

“Special Researchers System”

In 2012, Ochanomizu University introduced a unique researcher system, a post-doctoral fellowship for prominent female researchers who hope to obtain a faculty position. The research fellows are commonly called “Migakazuba Researchers.” Because female researchers face various life events during their careers, the Institute for Global Leadership supports Migakazuba Researchers’ ongoing projects.

Migakazuba Researchers 2023

MIURA Naoko

Research Field

Human Geography, Mental Health and Welfare

Research Theme

Keywords：community care, psychiatry, disability, immigration administration asylum seeker

I am interested in the relationship between the construction process of the subjectivities of the people concerned and the action of power toward the people with bodies who are separated from society and made invisible in a specific space, such as long-term patients of psychiatric hospitals and long-term foreign detainees of the asylum. In addition, since I am also a psychiatric social worker, I am currently examining the possibility of constructing a "flexible" community care system that "ensures that all people do not fall through the cracks" together with the people concerned and supporters by utilizing the network I have built through fieldwork.

NAKAGAWA Sayaka

Evolutionary Ecology

Research Theme

Keywords：Sunflower family, within-species polymorphism, floral morphology, life history

I am interested in morphological and genetic diversity within species. In particular, I focus on the floral form and life history of Aster hispidus species complex and the closely related A. kantoensis (Sunflower family) in their native habitats. Recently I’ve been performing population genetic analyses, by which I try to reveal their diversification process in Japan.

My academic interest is the transaction between people and physical environment. Especially I am interested in how the physical environment support human development.

Research Theme

Keywords：clothing psychology, clothing design and color studies, school uniform, psychological effect, FUKUIKU

I am studying what kind of image is formed when a person wears what kind of clothing, in what kind of place, and what kind of psychological and physiological effects it has on the wearer and those around them, from the perspectives of clothing psychology and clothing design and color science. Currently, I am clarifying the psychological effects of school uniforms and standardized uniforms on the wearer and the people around them, and how to apply these effects to FUKUIKU (education to nurture a rich mind through clothing).
