HIROI Yu

HIROI Yu serves as a Professor at the Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology (RCAST), an interfaculty research institution within The University of Tokyo, where he leads investigations at the critical intersection of public policy and behavioral epidemiology.

His research specializes in quantifying societal responses to government emergency declarations, particularly analyzing compliance patterns in population mobility during crisis events. This work combines rigorous data modeling with real-world policy implementation studies, focusing on human behavioral adaptation in public health emergencies through interdisciplinary methodologies that bridge social sciences and quantitative analytics.

RCAST provides the institutional framework for his research, facilitating cross-departmental collaboration on complex global challenges through advanced scientific approaches that integrate societal behavior analysis with emergency management frameworks.
