2026 JpGU-AGU Joint Meeting

2026年5月24日から29日まで、千葉・幕張で開催された JpGU-AGU Joint Meeting 2026 に横山研究室のメンバーが参加しました。

会期中、研究室の多くのメンバーが口頭発表やポスター発表を行い、それぞれの研究成果を国内外の研究者の方々に紹介する貴重な機会となりました。また、学会期間中の夜には懇親の場もあり、研究室内外の交流を深めることができました。

全体を通して、とても有意義で実り多い一週間となりました。今後もこのような機会を大切にし、毎年継続して参加していければと思います。

Members of the Yokoyama Laboratory participated in the JpGU-AGU Joint Meeting 2026, held in Makuhari, Chiba, from May 24 to 29, 2026.

During the meeting, many of our lab members gave oral and poster presentations, providing a valuable opportunity to share our research with scientists from Japan and abroad. We also enjoyed several evening gatherings during the conference period, which allowed us to deepen our connections both within and beyond the laboratory.

Overall, it was a very meaningful and fruitful week. We hope to continue taking part in such opportunities every year in the future.
