This is Nakatsuji from the Women Researchers Support Office. Last week the humidity was so high my hair was all frizzy, so I'm hoping it'll be a little more refreshing this week.
Call for attendees for research presentations in English.
The Office for Supporting Female Researchers holds "Research Presentations in English" to help female researchers improve their English presentation skills and to facilitate research exchange. This not only provides presenters with English presentation training, but also offers attendees a platform to hear about research in various fields and engage in networking.
This year, we finally received an application from someone willing to be a presenter, so the first session has been scheduled. Therefore, we are now accepting applications for attendees.
The benefits for attendees include...
- Free
- The instructor's guidance to the presenters was very insightful.
- You can also learn about research in fields you haven't been involved in before.
- You can also practice asking questions.
- You can meet various female researchers, etc.
This is an event you simply must attend! Female faculty members and graduate students are welcome to participate. You can also participate from your own PC. Please see the "Details Page" for more information.
Date and time: April 20th, 2 PM - 3 PM
Presenter: Kyoko Miura, Associate Professor (Institute for Genetic Disease Control)
Application/Details Page
We are currently accepting applications for presenters. Due to various circumstances, we need to hold five more sessions this year, so if you're thinking, "I want to present at an international conference!", please apply immediately. We are also currently experimentally accepting applications from female doctoral students. Please recommend this to any students you know who might need to present in English.
