Takaaki Kajita
Takaaki Kajita is a renowned Japanese physicist best known for his discovery of neutrino oscillations, which provided evidence that neutrinos have mass. This groundbreaking work led to him being awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015, shared with Arthur McDonald. Kajita's research is primarily based at the University of Tokyo, where he has contributed significantly to the fields of particle physics and astrophysics. His insights have transformed our understanding of fundamental particles and their role in the universe. Recently, he has been vocal about concerns regarding the institutional changes in Japan's science community, referring to the incorporation of the Science Council of Japan as the 'beginning of the end.'
