Report of JSPS exhibition booth at AAAS Annual Meeting

JSPS Washington Office participated in the 2023 AAAS annual meeting during March 2-5 at the Washington, DC Convention Center. The JSPS Washington Office booth was set at the AAAS Expo, we explained JSPS International collaborate programs, International Fellowship programs and the World Premier International Research Center Initiative (WPI).

This time, 3 Alumni members, Dr. Wade Sick, Dr. Samiul Alam and Dr. Stephanie Rankin-Turner, joined our booth, and they talked about their research experiences in Japan to the visitors.

Also, Dr. Peter Agre, 2003 Nobel Laureates in Chemistry, Bloomberg Distinguished  Professor at Johns Hopkins University, visited our booth, and listened to our explanations, in particular, HOPE MEETINGS with Nobel Laureates and Nobel Prize Dialogue.

The next AAAS annual meeting will be held in Denver, CO, February 15-17, 2024, as the meeting theme is “Toward Science Without Walls”. We would appreciate it if alumni members near Denver could support us. If you are interested in, please contact to was-info@overseas.jsps.go.jp.
