Building on last year’s emphasis on industry collaborations, this year’s symposium shifts focus inward, spotlighting the transformative potential of academic collaboration and interdisciplinarity. It will explore how cross-field convergence is key to addressing the complex, interconnected challenges facing the world today.

The theme of "Convergence" reflects OIST's founding vision, aiming to strengthen internal academic synergies. By fostering collaboration across diverse fields, the OIST COI-NEXT Program seeks to develop holistic, integrated solutions within the One World - One Health initiative, promoting a unified approach to global health and well-being.
