Tomonobu Nakayama, MANA Principal Investigator, Deputy Director of WPI-MANA, was selected as the Fellow of the Japan Society for Applied Physics (JSAP).

The award title is “Exploration of functionality based on atom/molecule manipulations and development of nano characterization tools” and the ceremony was held at the 80th JSAP Autumn Meeting at Hokkaido University on September 18th, 2019.

The Japan Society of Applied Physics has established a fellow commendation system in 2006 to “recognize researchers who have made significant contributions to the development of applied physics through ongoing activities”. To date, 396 researchers have been commended as the JSAP Fellow. In addition, from the 6th (FY2012), an international fellow commendation system has been in operation, and 23 international fellows have been selected.
