On September 3rd and 4th, we held a two-day, one-night seminar retreat at the Chiba Institute of Technology’s Onjuku Training Center. This time, it was a joint retreat with Professor Nakagawa’s lab, in addition to our own, the Tago Lab. Although Professor Nakagawa was unable to attend due to scheduling conflicts, we enjoyed lively discussions in small groups and had a great time socializing and interacting with members from the other lab.
