Support for hosting online international research conferences, etc.: International online symposium "Toward understanding new life phenomena in cancer and immunology research" (held on January 27)

The Office for Promoting a Diversity Research Environment provides support for organizing online international research conferences and other events by female researchers (applications for FY2021 are now closed) . The aim is to help female researchers at this university strengthen their leadership skills through organizing research conferences and other events, and to build global networks that will lead to future research development.

With this support, an international online symposium will be held by Professor Naoko Maishi of the Faculty of Dentistry at our university. Details are provided below.

Symposium Overview

Starting at 9:00 on Thursday, January 27th,
