Description

Converging Horizons: NTT x OIST Joint Workshop

Join us for an exclusive workshop between NTT and OIST. We will host short talks and posters by NTT and OIST researchers covering a wide range of topics, including marine science, ecology, quantum information, photonics, AI, biotechnology and more.

The aim of the workshop is to meet, network, and explore opportunities for research collaborations that combine the complementary strengths of both organizations.

The poster session includes posters of all the talks, plus additional topics. Faculty, students, and researchers interested in learning about research at NTT and in connecting to NTT researchers are encouraged to attend.
