During the semester master’s and doctoral students have the opportunity to present the progress of their research in the weekly laboratory, or lab meeting. The meeting serves two functions: First, teachers as well as fellow students can critique the presentations and provide a constructive input that will help the student to improve and refine his research project. Second, by presenting his/her research findings, the student introduces new knowledge to the members of the teaching staff as well as to the other fellow students. The minutes of the Lab Meetings will be posted only on the Japanese version of this site and only in Japanese. We apologise for your inconveniences.
