Summer camp 2022 in Kuju Joint Training Center
Q-ENERGY Innovator fellowship coordinated by Platform for Inter-/Transdisciplinary Energy Research was established in 2021. The fellowship program aims to support talented doctoral students who do research related to topics necessary to build a future, sustainable energy, carbon-neutral society. In addition, we want to build connections between young researchers and their more experienced mentors in our regular research meetings and seminars.
Summer camp is one of the significant events of the fellowship program. This year, we spent two days together (15-16 of September) having a productive and creative retreat in the mountains of Kyushu, at the Kuju Joint Training Center for National Universities in the Kyushu Area.
During the meeting, we shared the progress of our research in oral and poster sessions, discussed new ideas, and brainstormed on building connections between various research fields. We also had a lot of fun having barbeque together and visiting the famous Hatchobaru Geothermal Power Plant.
Please watch this summary video to see how we spent time during the Summer camp this year! We are looking forward to welcoming more students to the fellowship program, expanding our horizons together, and aiming to build a sustainable, carbon-neutral energy society.
