We have a monthly meeting for the discussion of individual research theme. Every students and PostDocs will give a short presentation about progress of the research. We give importance to failures as well as successful experiments, because the failures hold great potential for wonderful results.

Most of researches start with unique ideas or serendipitous discovery. In Paper Research, students have a 1 hour talk about one research topic including ideas, background, breakthrough, recent progress and future visions. Here it is important to read papers through reviewer’s eyes.

Reaction mechanisms are a kind of language in chemistry research. In study meeting, we select a couple of synthetic research papers to discuss detailed mechanisms for reported reactions.

We enjoy casual conversation drinking coffee. This is a great source of research ideas!
