🏃♂️ During my morning run before the conference on its second and final day, I visited the areas where I used to hang out during my university days – Osu, Kamimaezu, and Tsuruma.
I jogged past nostalgic spots like Osu Kannon Temple 🛕, Yabaton 🐷, Sugakiya Osu 🍜, and Tsuruma Park 🏞️. While these areas have evolved with time, their essence remains unchanged. This is the kind of timeless value I want to pursue in life.
アメリカの研究者と交流し、生物材料の外部委託による効率的な研究スタイルを学びます。私がやりがちな自前主義とは異なる視点を得ます。今後に活かそう✨ I attended the CBS conference banquet on Lucent Tower’s 40th floor in Nagoya. The night view was breathtaking, with illuminated Nagoya Castle to the east and the station square’s green lights to the south.
I engaged with American researchers. They taught their efficient approach to outsourcing biological materials, offering fresh insights beyond my traditional in-house methods ✨
この三菱電機は20年前、学部生時代にFA関連製品を見学させてもらいました。後に友人から、ここが花形部署だと教えてもらったことを思い出します。懐かしさと再発見が入り混じる、充実の学会前の朝の運動でした。 I completed a 12km morning run 🏃 before the conference, visiting Nagoya Dome, Mitsubishi Electric, Tokugawa Garden, and Nagoya TV Tower.
At Mitsubishi Electric, I recalled my undergraduate visit 20 years ago to see their FA products. Later, a friend told me this was actually their prestigious division. This morning run became a fulfilling pre-conference exercise, mixing nostalgia with rediscovery.
🦠👨🔬 I gave an invited talk on Microorganism Cyborgs at CBS 2024, Nagoya University. To be honest, my preparation wasn’t perfect.
However, the Euglena video prepared by my students was well-received by the audience! Good materials and presentation structure made it work. The view from the 8th floor of the EI Innovation Building was spectacular.
After an intense two weeks in 🇸🇬Singapore, mission accomplished! Taking a breather at 0°C in 🇨🇳Beijing while waiting for my Haneda flight. It’s been full work mode, but definitely worthwhile. Can’t wait to see my lab members and family back in Japan!
走るだけだと、飽きがあるし、板麺も食べたいところ。SUTDから西に3km離れた肥佬板面まで走って到着。板麺は🍜きしめんと塩ラーメンを融合したような優しい味わい。あっさりとしたスープに香ばしい揚げ雑魚がアクセント。 4.5SGD(520円)という破格値で、帰国前の元気をチャージ。 Running alone can get a bit monotonous, and I was craving some ban mian. After a 3km run west from SUTD, I arrived at Fei Lou Ban Mian. The noodles 🍜 had a gentle blend of Japanese udon and salt ramen flavors. The light broth was perfectly complemented by crispy fried anchovies. At just 4.50 SGD (around 520 yen), it was a great deal and the perfect energy boost before heading back home.
🏃♂️SUTDの北側、未開の工業地帯を走ります。 ① シンガポール日本人学校チャンギ校を初めて見ました。重厚な白い建物が印象的です。 ② 真向かいには米半導体装置メーカーのApplied Materials本社があります。土曜日の夜7時でも普通に働いています。シンガポールでは珍しいのでは? こういう発見があるから外ランは止められません。
🏃♂️I ran through the unexplored industrial area, north of SUTD. (1) I came across the Japanese School Changi Campus for the first time. Its white building looks majestic. (2) Right across the street is Applied Materials, a semiconductor equipment manufacturer. People are still working there at 7 PM on Saturday – quite unusual for Singapore, isn’t it? These unexpected discoveries are why I can’t give up outdoor running.
🍕 Had dinner with 6 SUTD faculty members. They all chose SUTD after their Western experiences. With international faculty at 50%, SUTD reflects Singapore’s environment where global talent naturally thrives. Could Japan create new value in its aging society by becoming equally attractive to international talent?
The Neapolitan pizza, prosciutto, and Christmas decorations were wonderful. Thank you for inviting me! ✨
A calculation error was discovered during a meeting! 😱 It was decided that one person would bear the burden alone. I naively spoke up, “Let’s share the responsibility for this mistake together!”
The outcome didn’t change, but I have no regrets! The spirit of fairness I inherited from my mentor still pushes me forward today. Though staying quiet would have been easier, I somehow feel proud of myself ✌
Drawn by karaoke songs,🎤 I found SUTD’s Deepavali celebration. Though the main festival ended October 31st, they held this event on November 13th as festivities extend longer here.
Indians are indeed a major community in Singapore. It’s amazing how they celebrate late into night without alcohol. I often find myself connecting with Indian culture and enjoy these cross-cultural experiences.🌍
