I will be leaving for Japan tonight for my longest ever trip for six months. I'm not there purely for holiday, but for a research attachment at Saitama University.
My research attachment is fully sponsored by the Matsumae International Foundation. The Matsumae International Foundation Research Fellowship is granted to young researchers in the field of pure sciences, engineering and medicine to pursue their research in Japan, and to have a greater understanding of Japan and a lasting world peace.
I am really honoured to be granted this research fellowship as the success rate from the records of the past two years were only 12% and 15%, respectively.
I'll definitely make full use of this opportunity to beef up my research portfolio, and indulge myself in the Japanese scenery and culture at the same time.
So, for the next six months, I'll dedicate this blog to my experience in Japan.
