Rio Yokota at BU
Rio Yokota came to work with Prof. Barba as a postdoctoral researcher on January 2009. He was initially based in Bristol, UK, funded by Barba's EPSRC grant and then moved to Prof. Barba's Boston group to continue his postdoc there. In September 2011, he became a research scientist at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, KAUST, under the supervision of Prof. David Keyes in the Extreme Computing Research Center.
Updates
In 2015, Rio Yokota became an Associate Professor at the Global Scientific Information and Computing Center of the Tokyo Institute of Technology.
