We are pleased to announce that the 8th ExCELLS Retreat for Young Researchers will be held.
OUTLINES
The ExCELLS Retreat for Young Scientists is organized primarily by early-career researchers affiliated with the Exploratory Research Center on Life and Living Systems (ExCELLS). The retreat aims to foster interaction among young researchers both within and outside ExCELLS and to cultivate the seeds of future interdisciplinary collaborations through shared retreat activities.
At this year’s retreat, we will organize group work sessions to develop joint research proposals under the theme of “interdisciplinary collaboration,” which is a hallmark of ExCELLS, while imagining the process of securing external funding. Through this program, we aim to foster cross-disciplinary interaction among young researchers.
