Element Strategy Initiative Advisory Council 2019

Element Strategy Initiative Advisory Council 2019
(ESIAC2019)(Finished: Thank you for your participation. Please fill out the following questionnaire. You can download the materials of the day from the following program.)

We decided to convene an international advisory council, the Element Strategy Initiative Advisory Council (ESIAC)2019, in order to evaluate the project activities and seek advice and to  retain the advantage of materials science in our country.

We will develop an “Outline report meeting” at which we will reconfirm the purpose of this project, the implementation system that we have built up to now, the outcomes obtained at each research center and the cooperative situation with the Specific Advanced Large-Scale Research Facility, and so on.

We will hold a “Public Meeting ” at which there will be an exchange of opinions between participants regarding the ideal future shape of material research based on the Element Strategy Initiative.

We should be very much obliged if you can participate.
