IEEE-NANOMED is one of the premier annual events organized by the IEEE Nanotechnology Council(NTC) to bring together physicians, scientists, and engineers alike from all over the world and every sector of academy and industry, working at advancement of basic and clinical research in medical and biological sciences using nano/molecular medicine and engineering methods.

IEEE-NANOMED is the conference where practitioners will see nano/molecular medicine and engineering at work in both their own and related fields, from essential and advanced scientific and engineering research and theory to translational and clinical research.

If you facilitate events for diverse audiences, you may encounter unexpected situations that are difficult to navigate at the moment. Effective facilitation centers on what participants are doing and experiencing, setting the tone of the event, and tending to the group dynamics in the room. Inclusive facilitation is a leadership skill that requires self-awareness, observational skills, agility, and intention. Join this session to sharpen your leadership facilitation skill set in preparation for your next event. This workshop is intended for participants who have some prior facilitation experience. The workshop will be conducted in English by Kristin Macapagal, Program Director for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

The workshop will include lectures that will provide an overview of the current status and challenges of research on the marine environment and marine ecosystems, promote the exchange of the latest knowledge among disciplines, and present cross–disciplinary perspectives. Young researchers and graduate students will share and discuss their ideas to formulate recommendations for the future of cross–disciplinary research.

On December 4th (Monday), from 4:30 pm to 5:40 pm, the University of the Ryukyus will host the 17th Ryudai Future Forum × Diversity Promotion Top Seminar online, featuring Dr. Karin Markides, President and CEO of the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology.
