Science Challenge Final Presentations

The Science Challenge is a week-long event where we invite 31 Japanese and international undergrad students to experience the way science is done in OIST.

Throughout the week, among many activities, they will be working on a 4-minute presentation about this year's theme: "Think big, start small".

Come take a peek at what the future of Japanese science will be like.
