Dr. Hayato Yamada and Mr. Tomoya Nakagomi (M1) participated in the 2023 Annual Meeting of the society of fiber science and technology, Japan (SFSTJ) held at TOWER HALL FUNABORI, Tokyo, Japan from June 14th to 16th. They did a study on proteins in silkworms. The atmosphere at the conference was completely different from that of organic chemistry, and the approach to research was also different, so it was a good stimulus!
