Participants engaged in hands-on science activities

The participants engaged in OIST’s cutting-edge research through hands-on science activities, such as experiencing integrated processes of visual and tactile sensation, extracting RNA from fish tissues, testing enzyme reactions, coding and controlling robots, and performing a total carbohydrate content assay. Aside from the hands-on activities, they explored the facilities and equipment on campus during guided campus and facility tours and visited the research unit laboratories at OIST. Credit: Ayaka Yoneno (OIST)
