基礎・境界ソサイエティは，幅広い分野からなる研究専門委員会だけでなく，それらを束ねる複数のサブソサイエティを有している点が大きな特徴です．各研専による定期的な研究会の開催だけでなく，サブソサイエティによって開催される各種シンポジウム，国際会議等によって，本ソサイエティの国内外におけるプレゼンスは非常に高いものとなっています．この強みを十二分に活かすことで，ソサイエティおよび学会全体を再び成長フェーズに乗せることは十分可能であると考えています．そのためにも，ソサイエティ傘下の各組織の機能強化が不可欠です．ソサイエティ，サブソサイエティ，研究会を基盤とした研究活動の活発化だけでなく，すでに各サブソ，研専がもっている国際的なネットワークを活用した海外展開，さらには産業界とのコラボレーションが極めて重要です．これらの施策を持続的かつ着実に進めるためにも，若手・後進の育成は最重要課題といえます．学生や若手研究者が自ら成長できる場を提供することはソサイエティの大きな役割の一つです．卒業しても会員でいることにメリットを感じられる存在であるか．そのことを常に自問自答しながら，ソサイエティ会員の皆様のお手伝いをさせていただきたいと思います．

The Engineering Science Society is characterized not only by its wide range of research technical committees but also by its multiple sub-societies that integrate and support these diverse areas. Through regular research meetings organized by the technical committees, as well as various symposia and international conferences held by the sub-societies, the Society maintains a remarkably strong presence both domestically and internationally. By fully leveraging these strengths, I believe it is entirely possible to guide the Society and the Institute back into a phase of growth. To achieve this, it is essential to further strengthen the functions of the organizations under the Society. In addition to revitalizing research activities centered around the Society, its sub-societies, and research meetings, it is crucial to promote international outreach by utilizing the global networks already established by the sub-societies and committees, as well as to enhance collaboration with industry. Sustaining and steadily advancing these initiatives requires placing the highest priority on nurturing young researchers and future generations. Providing opportunities for students and early-career researchers to grow is one of the Society’s most important roles. We must continually ask ourselves whether we remain a Society in which members feel genuine value in staying involved even after graduation. With this in mind, I am committed to supporting all members of our Society to the best of my ability.
Dr. Toshihisa Tanaka received his B.E. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1997 and his Ph.D. in Engineering from the same university in 2002. After working as a research scientist at RIKEN, he joined the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology in 2004, where he is currently a Professor. His research interests include signal processing, machine learning, biomedical signal measurement, and their applications. He served as Principal Investigator of the JST CREST program on Artificial Intelligence from 2017 to 2023 and has been the Principal Investigator of JST CRONOS since 2024. He is currently Chair of the IEEE Tokyo Joint Chapter, General Chair of IEEE ICASSP 2028, and a Senior Area Editor of IEEE Signal Processing Letters. Within the Institute, he has served as Chair of the Signal Processing Technical Committee and as Chair of the Systems and Signal Processing Sub-Society.
