1) Program Description<\/h3>\n

The objective of the program is to provide undergraduate students from different countries (including some from Japan) who are committed to or who are considering a career in biology or related sciences and looking to continue to graduate studies, with eight weeks of biomedical research experience in the basic and translational sciences. Research experiences are being provided by faculty members of the\u00a0Graduate School of Medicine<\/a>,\u00a0Graduate School of Engineering<\/a>,\u00a0Graduate School of Science<\/a>,\u00a0Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences<\/a>,\u00a0Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences<\/a>, and the\u00a0Institute of Industrial Science<\/a>. By the end of their summer experience, students are expected to acquire knowledge and skills for conducting research. The students are also expected to extend their international friendship through the collaborative experiences. These experiences will help the students to develop future collaborations in many situations.<\/p>\n
