Attending this program literally changed my vision for research in a positive and strong way. Now, I wanted to become a researcher by heart and contribute to my own country as well as Japan. Interestingly, in this upcoming October, 2026, I am going to start my PhD at Osaka Metropolitan University which is a big achievement for me. I am grateful to JST and as a member of SSC for such opportunities like this to explore various research fields and the culture of Japan as well.

During the program, I was able to observe Japan’s strong commitment to scientific excellence, innovation, and discipline. The collaborative research atmosphere and the dedication of the academic community greatly inspired me. Through discussions with professors and fellow researchers, I gained deeper insights into modern scientific approaches and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in addressing complex global challenges. This exposure further encouraged me to develop my research skills and pursue higher studies where I can contribute meaningfully to scientific advancement.
