Kurisu Makise is a genius girl who graduated from university at the age of seventeen. She is a research member in Victor Qondria University's Brain Research Program and her research on the brain's memory retention system has earned critical acclaim in the scientific community. She later joins the Future Gadget Lab as Member 004 after a series of encounters with Rintaro Okabe, where she helps to create the Time Leap Machine, a microwave oven capable of sending memories 48 hours back in time. She has a myriad of nicknames, most of which are invented by Rintaro, much to her dismay.
