2019 – Present	ECPAIS (IEEE Ethics Certification Program for Autonomous and Intelligent System) The goal of ECPAIS is to create specifications for certification and marking processes that advance transparency, accountability and reduction in algorithmic bias in Autonomous and Intelligent Systems (A/IS). The three areas for which ECPAIS is developing criteria and processes for a Certification / mark are: Transparency in A/IS; Accountability in A/IS and Algorithmic Bias in A/IS. Hatada contributes to all three expert working groups: Certification for Transparency, Accountability and Algorithmic Bias. Phase I: 2019-2020; Phase II 2020-Present
2018 – 2019	European Parliament Research Services, Science Technology Options Assessment for “A governance framework for algorithmic accountability and transparency”. Report on policy options for governance of algorithmic systems based on review of current state of the art, focusing on algorithmic impact on democratic processes and human wellbeing. Four policy options are proposed to address: awareness raising; accountability in public sector use; regulatory oversight; and global coordination for algorithmic governance
2017 – present	IEEE P7003 Standard for Algorithmic Bias Considerations working group This standards project working group is part of the IEEE Global Initiative on Ethics for Autonomous and Intelligent System. Dr. Hatada leads two sections: “Conception and Conceptualization of project”, “Psychology and Culture”.

2013– present	The importance of finding and living true life and its societal condition for “Calling Right” Proposal to UNESCO “Calling Rights as a part of UN Human Rights“, March 31, 2018. The importance of “Calling”, searched and defined true connection to the self which gives authentic peaceful fulfilling confidence of integrity within the self and makes one want to contribute to the world with own passionate talent. Calling is the guide for life-long individual development with desire to live own true life, contribute and create the world by own World Vision of a better world. Development of programmes to help individuals and global society using based on academic expertise of evolution, development, adaptation; cognitive computational neuroscience, neuroscientific consciousness studies, ecology, system sciences; Buddhism self-science, metaphysics and practice system; music anthropology; political / cultural understanding through working in the West and East. Yohko Hatad (2020) Find and Execute the True Passion of Your Lifework: A Calling Development Program
2011 – 2012	Japan anti-nuclear / Fukushima citizens campaign After the East Japan Earthquake and Fukushima Nuclear Plant disaster, Japanese media and journalism deteriorated dramatically with national and international information manipulation. Human rights of affected people in Fukushima area were ignored. Investigation and reports became very difficult. Helped ICAN activists in US to collaborate with Japanese and ex PM Kan for effective campaign. Built a help-information network for connecting the offers from all Japanese municipalities to the affected people who need the help and information. The government’s loss of confidence by Fukushima Nuke disaster divided Japanese people and its society, with lies and anger. The loss of confidence in leaders of various levels at critical moments of disasters is detrimental. The leaders’ actions significantly determine the following responses and their courses of recoveries / developments. Appropriate actions can only be taken by facing the bottom of the cause of the problems with determination to bring solutions through genuine hearing own “Calling” and act at once. It is not a gradual process, it is a sheer determination. This observation brought me to establish EMLS RI.
2010 – 2012	Journalism revolution in Japan at national level and municipal level Japanese journalism has historical weakness in its media law. It is not systemically, completely independent from US influence. Suggested a proposal to liberalise Japanese media in some fundamental ways. Among them, LDP took a part in its party manifesto: the need to strengthen Japanese broadcasting in the world as Japanese News reports. Liquid democratic system for municipal level mechanism to enable citizens to directly propose, discuss and vote for issues to the municipal parliament. The mechanisms also function educationally for citizens to take active roles and responsibility to participate for the society building.
2002 – 2010	Study of spatial and temporal coding in human perception and action. (INSERM, UCL, Kyoto U, Nat. Taiwan U., Sheffield U.) Extremely long-lasting prism adaptation aftereffects of multi modalities interactions for action and perception in normal human. International collaborative research. This study explored the fundamental basis of human visuo-audio-proprioceptive information- internal model for action- integration for ocular-centric space and time perception coding for action, using a single 20 min spatially shifting prism glasses adaptation training. The results revealed more than three independent but interacting cellular and neural network mechanisms of brain for perceptual and behavioural plasticity. The work had direct implications for behavioural therapies to ameliorate perception deficits in certain stroke patients. The impactful results were immediately used for clinical studies.
1995 – 2000	Mechanisms of Learning & Memory in small neural network. (Columbia University) The processes and mechanisms of synapse formation during long term potentiation as memory formation and consolidation were studied in situ for 72h while memory was being formed. The results revealed separate mechanisms for long (more than 10h-d), middle (h), short-term (m) memory.  Actin polymerization is the critical molecular regulation for formation of synapses and neurite elongation. The results also suggested the gene up-regulation of actin polymerization mechanism takes more than 10h and last more than 3 days. Technical challenge for establishing and using long duration live3D fluorescent microscopic video recording, video enhanced interference imaging and the analysis for the studies were daunting and very satisfactory.
1990 – 1995	Study of the origin of “Organizer” in embryo in evolutionary developmental neurobiology.  (University of Oxford) Mechanisms were studied of how a population of cells, known as “organizer”, regulate the differentiation of cell types and body pattern formation, determining the morphology of the whole body and nervous system. The evolutionary implications of the results were discussed by comparison with other vertebrate early embryogenesis. The results had high impacts for the basis of stem-cell research and regenerative medicine.
1982 – 1984	Building institution for disabled people to become independent (Muginome institution, Kagoshima, Japan) Building institution and citizen movements for Japanese government to take responsibility to make policies to build institutions and systems for disabled people to be able to earn and to live independent life by own decision. This required awareness building in the society and build citizen support and participation for appropriate job creations, governmental subsidies and policy implementation.
