Biology Club participates in Life Science Symposium!

We’re the Biology Club! We participated in the “Opening up the Future through Medicine and Engineering! Life Science Symposium” (sponsored by the Terumo Life Science Foundation, managed and planned by Leave a Nest), aimed at junior and senior high school students, held on Saturday, November 29th at the TKP Ichigaya Conference Center (Shinjuku Ward).

The event began with an opening ceremony in the afternoon, followed by keynote speeches (three presentations* by professors from the fields of medicine, engineering, and science), a panel session, and finally a poster exchange and hands-on event**.

We decided to participate in this symposium because the Biology Club’s research fields are connected to medicine and science. We hope to gain some inspiration for our future research.

Thank you very much.
