Why so many people in Japan ride bicycles | Léo Martial | TEDxYNU
Léo told us a story about the bicycle culture in Japan using his own experience living here, in Yokohama, as a PhD student. Léo Martial was born in France in 1987. He graduated from the Ecole spéciale d’architecture in Paris in 2010 with a major in architecture. His interest about transportation, especially railway and bicycle, was born during his first contact with Japan when he was an exchange student at Tokai University in 2008. He freelanced as an architect in 2012 and mainly worked for the French railway company SNCF where he designed and renovated several train stations around Paris for four years. Laureate of the Japanese government scholarship in 2017, he is now pursuing his research about transportation further with a PhD thesis at Yokohama National University about the synergy of train and bicycle through comparative analysis between Japan and Europe. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Pourquoi tant de gens font du vélo au Japon | Léo Martial | TEDxYNU
Léo nous parle de la culture du vélo au Japon en utilisant sa propre expérience de vie à Yokohama en tant que doctorant. Léo Martial est né en France en 1987, diplômé de l'Ecole Spéciale d'Architecture à Paris en 2010. Son intérêt pour le transport, notamment ferroviaire et cyclable, est né lors de son premier contact avec le Japon alors qu'il était étudiant en échange à l'Université de Tokai en 2008. Il a travaillé en tant qu'architecte indépendant dès 2012 notamment pour la SNCF où il a conçu et rénové plusieurs gares autour de Paris durant plus de quatre ans. Lauréat de la Bourse MEXT du gouvernement japonais en 2017, il poursuit désormais ses recherches sur le transport avec une thèse de doctorat à l'Université nationale de Yokohama sur la synergie du train et du vélo à travers une analyse comparative entre le Japon et l'Europe. Cette conférence a été donnée lors d'un événement TEDx utilisant le format de la conférence TED mais organisé indépendamment par une communauté locale. En savoir plus sur https://www.ted.com/tedx
