Title:
COI-NEXT Kick off Symposium ― One World One Health ―
Center for the Global Bioconvergence Innovation for a Sustainable Society Based on "Healthy Mind, Healthy Body, and a Healthy Environment”
Overview:
OIST has established the Center for Global Bioconvergence Innovation, supported by a major grant from the Japan Science and Technology Agency JST (Japan Science and Technology) Program on Open Innovation Platform for Academia-Industry Co-Creation (COI-NEXT). This is a kick-off event to commemorate the establishment of the Global Bioconvergence Center of Innovation.
The Center launches with an initial cohort of 12 Research Units, OIST’s Technology Development and Innovation Center (TDIC), and 30 academic, governmental, and industrial partners.
The event will feature a keynote address by Nick Luscombe, a DJ, soundscape artist, and researcher conducting unique research on music and health. We will introduce the different research projects, hold a panel discussion on bioconvergence, and booths to present interactive displays of research related to the three target areas of a "Healthy Mind, Healthy Body, and Healthy Environment”.
Timetable:
English, Japanese(as of March. 8)
*The program is subject to change.
*Internal event will take place in the morning for program/project members
