Dr. Nopphon Keerativaoranan
Dr. Nopphon is a postdoctoral researcher and visiting researcher. His expertise lies in the research fields of machine learning and signal processing for educational technology, as well as his experience in developing MOOCs courses on the edX platform. His current research at Cross Lab focuses on learner style profiling in MOOCs for the development of personalized learning paths within specific disciplines. Additionally, he provides research support for graduate and undergraduate students in the education technology group at Cross Lab.
Previously, he served as a research assistant at the Intelligent Transportation Systems Laboratory (ITS Lab) at the National Electronics and Computer Technology (NECTEC), where he conducted research in data science and data visualization for real-time tracking of public transport in Bangkok, Thailand. He also worked at the Online Content Research and Development Section (OCRD) at the Tokyo Institute of Technology as a research and teaching assistant within OCRD's analytic team. His research and development activities there included data analysis of learners and course content using natural language processing (NLP) to assess the quality of edX MOOCs, and the development of automatic tools to support the Tokyo Tech MOOCs course development teams

Dr. Mfor Ebot Agborambang
Dr. Ebot is a temporary Postdoctoral Fellow at the School of Environment and Society, Institute of Science Tokyo. His expertise lies in anaerobic digestion (AD) process engineering, biogas systems, and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)-based hydrodynamic simulation of bioreactors. His current research at Cross Lab focuses on dry anaerobic digestion of food waste with nano-biochar addition, contributing to the JST-AJCORE project. He also provides research support to graduate students in the Biofuels group at Cross Lab.
Previously, he served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Soka University, where he investigated the anaerobic treatment of egg-laying chicken manure in a double helical ribbon bioreactor and conducted CFD simulations of its mixing performance using ANSYS Fluent. His doctoral research focused on the structural modification and CFD-based optimization of the Chinese dome digester (CDD), resulting in a novel Two-Way Flow CDD (TWF-CDD) designed to enhance mixing, prevent scum formation, and improve methane yield.
