~Akiyama Memorial Foundation for Life Sciences Researcher Exchange Meeting~
—————————————————————-
The Akiyama Memorial Foundation for the Promotion of Life Sciences conducts research grant programs in the life sciences field in Hokkaido.
We are inviting Mr. Dan. In the Akiyama Foundation's research grants, when outreach activities are selected...
This is an important point.
In this seminar, we will hear about the thoughts and specific examples behind outreach activities.
Afterward, we will exchange opinions.
Many female researchers were selected for the Akiyama Foundation grant, and with the hope that they would be able to make use of it, they published this book.
I have planned a seminar.
"I understand that outreach is necessary, but what exactly should we do?"
For those of you wondering, "What kind of opportunities are there specifically?",
While eating, I thought about what I could do and what significance it had for researchers.
Why don't we think about it together?
This is a casual get-together where you can come and go as you please, so please feel free to join us.
Date: Thursday, August 2015, 10 29:12-00:13
