Biography:
Yusuke Okawa was born in Matsudo, Chiba, Japan in 1961. He received his BS and MS degrees, both in chemistry, from Chiba University in 1984 and 1986, respectively. He also received his Doctor of Engineering degree in applied chemistry from University of Tokyo (under supervision of Prof. Tadashi Watanabe) in 1989. He joined Department of Imaging Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Chiba University, as a Research Associate, in 1989. He became a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in 1998, and then an Associate Professor at Graduate School of Science and Technology, Chiba University, 2002, and then an Asscociate Professor at Graduate School of Advanced Integration Science, Chiba University, 2008. Since 2016, he has been an Associate Professor at Graduate School of Engineering, Chiba University. He was awarded the Gelatin Award of Society of Photographic Science and Technology of Japan (currently, the Society of Photography and Imaging of Japan) for his "Fundamental study on gelation process of gelatin" in 2002, and the Distinguished Service Award for his contribution to fundamental scientific studies about photography and the management of the Society in 2019.
He loves jazz music (plays acoustic and electric basses), and his wife and son, deeply.
