What kind of event?

This event uses research banners to facilitate interaction among researchers from various fields, to help solve problems together, and to aim for collaborative research.
 
I'd like to try incorporating methods from other fields.
I want to try something new.
I want to interact with researchers who are different from the usual...
We connect the thoughts and research of such researchers.

There will also be consultation booths regarding the 2020 "Research Grant for Developing Female Researcher Leaders" and the "North Tech Foundation Research Grant." Research grants are planned for next year for participants of this event.
