- May 22, 2026：A welcome party for Suyash and Professor Nomura (Physics 2) was held jointly by Condensed Matter Physics 2 and 3.
- April 1, 2026: Suyash, an Indian international student (first-year doctoral student), has joined our research lab.
- March 20, 2026: Inukai presented his research findings at the Annual Meeting of the Chemical Society of Japan (@Funabashi).
- December 15-19, 2025： Pachfichem was held, and Inukai gave an invited lecture (in Honolulu, USA). It was a period with a lot of rain, but the beach that peeped through the sunny intervals between the rain was impressive.
- November 26-28, 2025: At the 64th NMR Discussion Meeting (in Okinawa), Inukai, Sato, and Inai participated. They gave presentations introducing the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and their research results. The first-ever Okinawa event provided a venue surrounded by the beautiful sea and nature, fostering lively discussions. It was a valuable opportunity to deepen research exchanges while experiencing Okinawan culture (such as Eisa and awamori).
