At the 61st Annual Meeting, we welcome presentations by high school students and technical school students (1st-3rd year of regular course) as in the previous year. One of the features of presentations by high school and technical school students at this meeting is that they will make a presentation at the same time and in the same venue as the presentations by the general members. Please take advantage of this opportunity to discuss your research findings with experts. We also encourage you to attend the other presentations and experience the atmosphere of this meeting, where science is discussed in a fun and serious way. “The High School Presentation Award” will be given to the best presentation by a high school student or a technical school student.
