Between 2005-2007 I was a visiting researcher at Hosei University (Tokyo) as a post-doctoral research fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. Before arriving at Manchester in 2013 I spent six years in New Zealand, working at the University of Otago as Lecturer and Senior Lecturer in Asian Religions.</p> <p>Between 2017-2020 I was the Director of the <a href="http://www.nwcdtp.ac.uk">North West Consortium Doctoral Training Partnership</a>, a consortium sponsored by the AHRC of seven universities and HEIs. It offers postgraduate studentships, supervision, training and skills development across the full range of the Arts and Humanities disciplines.</p> <p>I have held visiting positions at several institutions including Toyo University (2021); Centre for Advanced Study at the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, Oslo (2019); Université Libre de Bruxelles (2018); Institute for Gender Studies, Ochanomizu University (2016).</p> <p> </p></div><h3 class="subheader">Research interests</h3><div class="textblock"><p>My research interests lie in religion in contemporary Japan with a focus on religious minorities, media and technology, violence, emotions and temporalities. </p> <p>My research and fieldwork have been supported by UK Research and Innovation, Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), Japan Foundation, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation, Canon Foundation.</p> <p>I am currently PI on a Leverhulme Research Project on "<a href="https://www.alc.manchester.ac.uk/modern-languages/research/projects/fear-and-belonging-in-minority-buddhist-communities/">Fear and Belonging in Minority Buddhist Communities</a>" (2023-2027). In this project, I will work with Dr. <a href="https://research.manchester.ac.uk/en/persons/jane-caple">Jane Caple</a> to test the proposition that fear plays an important and productive role in religious belonging and the maintenance and renewal of religious communities.</p> <p>In 2019-2021 I was PI for a UKRI AHRC-ESRC UK-Japan SSH Connection Grant on <a href="https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/religion-and-minority/">"Religion and Minority: Lived Religion, Migration and Marginalities in Secular Societies" </a>(ES/S013482/1; Co-I Professor Takahashi Norihito, Toyo University). </p> <p>In 2016 I started a digitization project (supported by The Japan Foundation and Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation) of <a href="https://www.digitalcollections.manchester.ac.uk/collections/japanesemaps/2">Japanese maps </a>from the Maps Collection of the John Rylands Research Institute and Library.
