The Bottom-up Program for High School Students

The Bottom-up Program for High School Students, a program that creates opportunities to hear from Ph-D students from Okinawa and learn about scientists, was held with 19 students from high schools in Okinawa attending. Yuki Tara, an OIST Ph.D student from the Yamamoto Unit (Cell Signal Unit), gave a lecture on his research and career path, and a lab tour followed. 

We hope that this event will be one of the reasons for their interest in science.

This program was part of FY2023 Human Resource Development Project for Science and Technology for Children.
