Special Issue : The Division of Young Researchers

This special issue introduces the activities of the division of young researchers. The division aims to promote interdisciplinary knowledge sharing and community formation among young researchers through annual workshops and publications. This special issue features recent research highlights by young researchers and lecturers at our previous workshops, as well as articles on the experiences of earning a doctoral degree while working full-times, perspectives from principal investigators on the differences between research environments in Japan and abroad, and a roundtable discussion among five young researchers.
