[Research Outreach Content Creation Support] Guidance on English-language research presentations and support for video creation.

At our university, as part of the Research University Strengthening Promotion Project, we aim to create a research environment that attracts diverse research talent, as part of our vision to become a "university where the world's best minds come together."

*The research presentation in English is intended to be a short presentation of approximately one minute.
