On September 29, Kanazawa University and Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) held the 5th Joint Symposium in a hybrid format in the small hall of JAIST.

Since the establishment of the Joint Degree Program in Integrated Science in 2018, Kanazawa University and JAIST have been promoting interdisciplinary research centered around the activities of this program. Beginning in 2023, the two universities have been co-hosting joint symposia aimed at further developing and advancing collaborative research beyond the scope of the program itself.

The fifth symposium focused on the theme of “Quantum Science” and was attended by a total of 66 participants from both universities, including faculty members and students—35 in person and 31 online.

First, President Minoru Terano of JAIST gave opening remarks, followed by talks by four researchers from JAIST and Kanazawa University on the latest results in their respective research fields, such as quantum materials and quantum metaverse, and possibilities for collaboration with other fields. Finally, President Takashi Wada of Kanazawa University gave closing remarks.

In addition, 10 researchers from both universities gave poster presentations at the venue. Researchers from both universities engaged in lively discussions and deepened their understanding of each other's research.

This symposium provided a valuable opportunity to further deepen the research exchanges between the two universities, and to look forward to further development.
