日本再生医療学会総会in神戸 / Congress of the Japanese Society for Regenerative Medicine in Kobe

　升本先生の医学研セミナーと話が前後してしまうのですが、今年も再生医療学会に参加しました。今年は神戸で開催されました。久しぶりだった気がします。ありがたいことに今年も口頭発表に選んでもらえたので、４倍体iPS細胞の話をすることができました。医学研セミナーをお願いした坂口先生、升本先生ともお会いしてお食事もご一緒できたのでよかったです。懇親会ではプロジェクションマッピング？を活用したパフォーマンスも素晴らしかったです。来年もまた良い発表ができるように研究進めます。

This was actually before Dr. Masumoto’s Institutional Seminar (my previous blog post), but I attended the Japanese Society for Regenerative Medicine conference again this year. It was held in Kobe this time. It felt like it had been a while since I’d been there. Thankfully, I was selected for an oral presentation again this year, so I was able to talk about tetraploid iPS cells. It was great to see both Dr. Sakaguchi and Dr. Masumoto—whom I had invited to our Institutional Seminar—and have dinner with them. At the party, the performance featuring projection mapping was also fantastic. I’ll do my best to push our research so that I can give another good presentation next year.
