Yes, I have something like history, although I'm not living in that high place (i.e., my apartment is on the third story). Anyway, I am currently doing psychophysical investigation in Auditory and Visual Information Research Group, Human and Information Science Laboratory, NTT Communication Science Laboratories, Atsugi, Japan.
I was born about 31 years ago at Hiratsuka, Kanagawa, Japan, and had taken about twenty thousand meals before I entered the University of Tokyo. Further continuing taking a lot of meals, I spent a Ph.D. course (Apr '91 - Mar '96) in Komaba Sensory-Motor Laboratory (the lab was named so after I left! anyway, this whole lab is gone for ever, since Shin moved to Caltech), Department of Psychology, University of Tokyo, under the supervision of Dr. Shinsuke Shimojo.
I was also trained for two years during the Ph.D. course (Apr '93 - Mar '95) in the Neuroscience Section in Eletrotechnical Laboratory (ETL), Tsukuba, Japan, studying in the field of primate visual electrophysiology, under the guidance of Dr. Hidehiko Komatsu. Also, I spent another couple of years or so (Apr '95 - Aug '97) in continuing the same electrophysiological studies after Dr. Komatsu and I moved to the Laboratory of Neural Control in National Institute for Physiological Sciences (NIPS). Then I moved to Vision Sciences Laboratory, Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA, in Sep. '97 and spent 1.5 years as a post-doctoral fellow of Prof. Patrick Cavanagh.
So in summary, I first went into human visual psychophysics, and then into monkey physiology, oscillated rapidly, and the current state is in psychophysics.
