The influence for your own study or future

It’s important for us to keep on holding the symposium and keep communication among these universities. Different labs of different countries build relationships within these short days and even begin to cooperate with each other. Also our young researchers have the opportunity to broaden their minds.

My research or experience while staying Japan

The symposium really gave me a chance to broaden my mind and open up my international vision. In the workshop, I met young researchers and professors from Japan, South Korea and India, listen to their reports and communicate with them about their researches. I think it’s really an honor for me to communicate with these outstanding persons and it’s a great encourage for me to receive the “outstanding oral presentation” in “2015 Workshop on Green Science and Technology of Global Young Researchers” session.

About a University

The campus of Shizuoka University is clean and tidy. We can imagine how beautiful it will be in the cherry blossom season. It’s a good place for doing researches. The facilities are well-equipped and everyone here is hardworking. We have met several Chinese students for post-graduate study and PhD’s degree here. We’re really glad to hear that they all enjoy the life in Shizuoka University and we are happy for the gains they have made.

About a Japan

Among the several countries I’ve been, Japan is definitely one of the most favorite. It’s clean and beautiful. The traffic here is very convenient and fast. The hotel rooms are comfortable. The food is very delicious. The people here are polite and warm. If I have chance in the future, I would very glad to visit this beautiful country once again and even bring my families and friends together.

The influence for your own study or future

When I came back to China after the 5 days in Shizuoka and Hamamatsu in Japan, I think about the researches I’ve been doing and my research career in the future. There’ll be at least 3 years until I exit graduate school. After that I would like to go abroad for post-doctoral degree. Besides, this symposium provided a way for us to build international friendship cooperation.

My research or experience while staying Japan

It was a great pleasure to attend the fruitful symposium in Shizuoka University. Through the active communication, I had a good knowledge on the research field over biology, agriculture, nanotechnology, and biological material. I was most impressed in several topics such as fairy ring, recombinant baculovirus insecticide, CRISPR/Cas9 system, and magnetoplasmonic nanochains. Moreover, sophisticated researchers gave advices to my latest issues and personal development in near future. It was helpful. Thanks to meeting organizers, we have an access to communicate with expert in and out of our research field, which may attribute to interdisciplinary cooperation in future.

This is my first time to come to Shizuoka and attend the international symposium “Green Science and Technology of Global Young Researchers” held in Shizuoka University. I am one Ph.D. student and had one opportunity to present my works. Before started my presentation I was very nervous and worried my English pronunciation. However, the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere from everyone and the meeting gave me courage and confidence. Importantly, I got many kinds of knowledge from other fields. And I exchanged views with other professors and students. Thanks for organizers’ warm hospitality.

For my first sight, Shizuoka University is beautiful and full of vigor and vitality. It is well known in the field of engineering, creative innovation, and the invention of next generation technology. Graduates and fellows of Shizuoka University become successful leaders in different areas. The university consists of six faculties: Humanities and Social Sciences, Education, Informatics, Science, Engineering, and Agriculture. The campus has advanced equipments and students can get a good education in so comfortable condition.

Japan is a world leader in developing and implementing new environmentally-friendly technologies and is famous with its beautiful Fuji Mount and tasty sushi. Japanese is polite nation and keep struggle for better life. Japan has a large industrial capacity, and is home to some of the largest and most technologically advanced producers of motor vehicles, electronics etc, especially camera and robot.

This is an amazing and impressive trip to Japan. As one developed country, Japan gave me many new ideas for my future study and life. I am shocked by the garbage classification in Japan, and everyone whatever is child or adult could comply with this order consciously. So to make one better environment we must carry out similar measures in our country. And for my future study, I should do some practical researches that will be used in our daily life.

My research or experience while staying Japan

It made a deep impression on me when staying in Japan and I learned a lot from you. Professors and every young scientist have an enthusiasm toward their work and all of them tried their best to show the finds of studies to us. The research on fairy ring interested me so much although it had little interacts with mine, I think it’s a very meaningful work. Meanwhile, I have got many inspirations on my research and made a lot of friends who I want to contact with further.

About a University

We accepted Mr. Park and other teachers’ warm welcome in Shizuoka University. I’m very thankful for their friendly accommodations. The campus was so clear and students there are energetic and have potential in scholarship. I’ll being so pleased if I have the chance to study in Shizuoka University.

About a Japan

Japanese is a diligent and thrifty nation. Everyone there is polity and earnest whether from a shop assistant or to a teacher in university. The environment was very clean. The blue sky and beautiful clouds made me feel comfortable.

The influence for your own study or future

My research focuses on the genes regulation of silk gland apoptosis. The 2015 workshop broadened my horizons and strengthened my confidence on my studies. I trust more my work has an important role for the development of sericulture and some disease treatments.

This is the third time for me to attend the international symposium in Shizuoka University, Japan since 2007. This year’s theme is Green Science and Technology of Global Young Researchers. Through the symposiums, it is not only to strengthen academic exchanges between professors, enhance mutual friendship, but also to enhance the communication and friendship between students and make them better and faster progress in their career in scientific researches. During the symposium, we mutually discussed the research projects, exchanged the research results with colleagues of Shizuoka University and from South Korea, India, Hungary and other countries. Also we explored the possibility for academic cooperation in near future. During the meeting, we received the warm hospitality from our fellow professors, especially Prof. Watanabe and Prof. Enoch Y. Park. Thanks.

Shizuoka University is a prestigious university, which has long history inaugurated on 1949. The University has complete disciplines and subjects. The subject of bioscience in Shizuoka University ranks on the top level in biological researches in Japan, even in the world. In laboratory of Prof. Park, my friend and partnership, equipment is very advanced. Professor and young researchers are conducting many of research projects with glob leading level. Shizuoka University has beautiful campuses in Shizuoka and Hamamatsu. Both of them are full of sakura trees, presumably will be the beautiful and flowery garden in coming spring. Shizuoka University is putting great efforts to develop international academic exchanges, which will promote the academic standards, and to enhance the friendship among scholars and young researchers.

About a Japan

Japan is a developed country, which have a beautiful environment, a better life, and a large number of historical and cultural relics. Japanese people are polite, and abide by the rules. Although I have been in Japan many times, but each time, always fully feel the fresh air and beautiful scenery. During the stay in Japan for workshop, when we are on the way from Tokyo Narida Airport to Shizuoka, we appreciated the magnificent scenery of Fuji Mountain. In Shizuoka city, we enjoyed the street customs. Before return back home, we stayed one night near the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. Although it began to snow, but the snow viewing also gave us a good feeling.

The influence for your own study or future

My main subjects were animal sciences and molecular biology. In more than 30 year’s career, we cloned and analyzed the functional genes for growth and development of silkworm, studied mechanism of silk protein synthesis associated with the regulation of hormone. We built a new recombinant virus expression vectors and established the technologies for silkworm bioreactor platform to express important application value of protein, such as drugs and animal vaccines. In recent years, we conducted transgenesis, shRNA interference, site-directed mutagenesis with CRISPR / Cas9 and programmed cell signaling pathways such as apoptosis. During the 2015 workshop, I reported the theme entitled “piggyBac transposon-derived targeting shRNA interference and its application”. We have made an in-depth discussion with our Japanese colleagues for future researches to explore the possibility of cooperation. I believe the academic exchanges will improve and enhance our research level, and contribute greatly for science through student exchange and joint research.
