Young Researchers' Forum: "Discussing Career Paths for Researchers Together"

Date and Time:

Wednesday, December 4th (Day 2 of the Annual Meeting) 11:30 AM - 12:50 PM

Venue:

Room G (Around 50 participants)

*A complimentary lunch (bento box) will be provided.
*We welcome participants with children (please bring your child’s lunch or ask us additional bento boxes for them from a below form).
*Walk-in Participation: If space is available, walk-ins will be accepted on the day of the event, but we may not be able to provide lunch.

Abstract:

In the past two consecutive years, the ‘Young Researchers Forum’ has provided young researchers with an opportunity to share their anxieties and concerns about the future with others, receive advice from active researchers, and discuss the prospects and expectations for immunology. Based on feedback from previous participants, it became clear that young researchers seek a candid exchange of opinions and a frank networking opportunity. This year, we will also create a space for discussing life events (such as marriage, childbirth, parenting, and caregiving) that can impact career choices. We hope that this forum will assist young researchers in making career decisions under a clear vision for the future of Immunology Research.

Satellite Workshop

Date and Time:

Wednesday, December 4th (Day 2 of the Annual Meeting) from 8:30 PM

Venue:

TBD (Planned to be near Nagasaki Station)

Capacity:

Around 40 participants (advance registration required; participation fee around 3,000 yen)

Following the discussions held at the Young Researchers' Forum "Discussing Career Paths for Researchers Together," we will host a more in-depth discussion at the satellite workshop on the evening of the second day of the meeting. Even if you are unable to attend the Forum due to schedule conflicts, we encourage you to consider participating in the Satellite Workshop.

To help us prepare lunches for the Forum and confirm the number of participants for the Satellite Workshop, we kindly ask you to respond by Friday, November 15th.
