卒業論文発表会 & 今週の輪読

2/19(月)〜21(水)の 3 日間で食生命科学科の卒業論文発表会が開催され,生物制御化学研究室からは 1 名の学生が発表しました.今年度は修論発表会は対面開催されましたが,卒論発表会は Microsoft Teams を用いたオンライン開催で実施されました.オンライン開催だと参加の自由度は高いのですが,やはり個人的には対面でできればその方が良かったような気がしました.

修士論文発表会 & 今週の輪読

2/15(木),16(金)の二日間で実践農食科学コース(生物制御化学研究室が所属する大学院のコース)の修士論文発表会が開催されました.今年度は新型コロナウイルス感染症の問題が発生する前の 2019 年以来の対面開催で行われました.生物制御化学研究室は今年度は M2 学生がいませんので,発表はありませんでした.
