The B4 graduation research presentation was held.
Mizuki Ohira won the Best Presentation Award and Runa Honjo won the Best Presentation Award from our group.
After being assigned to our group in April this year, it was difficult for us to make progress in our research due to the corona disaster, but under the guidance of our seniors in the laboratory and our supervisor, all of the fourth-year students worked diligently on their research and received a very high evaluation. We look forward to their future activities.

Dr. Kazuya Masu, President of Tokyo Institute of Technology, visited us.
