Provost Iwama urged the incoming class to push themselves to make OIST the best it can be.

Prof. Tsumoru Shintake, whose original research field is accelerator physics, now leads the Quantum Wave Microscopy Unit at OIST. Prof. Shintake, who was engaged in creative activities from early childhood and later learned logic at university, shared some key components in technology development: good judgement gained through experience, the ability to identify the essential, a sense of speed, and a passion for the work.
