Amgen Scholars Program 2023/ Mid-term Presentation & Study Visit
From June 30th to July 2nd, the mid-term presentation and excursions of UTokyo Amgen Scholars Program were held at the UTokyo Yamanaka-Ryo Naito Seminar House in Yamanashi Prefecture.
Four weeks had passed since the students were assigned to their laboratories, and the mid-term presentations were held at the time when the program was coming to a half-way.
During the Q&A session that followed each presentation, there was a flurry of questions and suggestions, indicating that this was a very useful opportunity for the students to advance their research in the second half of the program.
The scholars also had the opportunity to visit nearby facilities such as Fujisan World Heritage Center, Oshino-Hakkai, Narusawa Ice Cave and Arakurayama Sengen Park during the trip. They also got to experience glass beads making and Houtou (local noodle soup), which provided an excellent opportunity to deepen exchanges not only among the scholars but also with the five graduate student mentors who led the trip.
