MIRAI will organize a digital kick-off event to celebrate the start of MIRAI third phase between 2024-2026. This digital event is open to the public and strongly welcome from all MIRAI member universities in Sweden and Japan as well as other universities, industry, research funding agencies, governmental sectors.

We are excited to announce an open call for poster presentations at the upcoming OIST x NanoLSI Joint Symposium. This symposium is a unique opportunity to showcase your research to a diverse audience, including leading experts from both OIST and NanoLSI. 

Title: Computational and Physical Understanding of Biological Information Processing

Organized by the EU-Japan EIG Concert Japan Project "A proactive Social-based framework for SMART transportation (SO-SMART)"

Human prosperity has advanced alongside the development of science and technology, opening numerous uncharted frontiers. While many mysteries have been solved, numerous unknowns remain, particularly in the life sciences. At the nanoscale level, fundamental questions persist, such as the dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids on the surfaces and within cells, the essential building blocks of living organisms.
As a WPI research institute pioneering cutting-edge microscopy techniques for visualizing nanoscale life phenomena, we are excited to co-organize an international symposium with OIST on "Exploring Uncharted Nanoscale Frontiers in Life Sciences." This symposium aims to foster transdisciplinary research and catalyze new collaborations among researchers from diverse fields. We warmly invite your participation.

OIST and JAIST entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) last year. As part of our collaborative efforts in research, both universities have agreed to leverage each other's strengths through cooperation. To commemorate the first anniversary of the MOU signing, a celebratory event will be held at OIST on November 27th.
