Science Castle, a conference for middle and high school students created in 2012 as a "gateway to becoming a researcher
To date, more than 15,000 junior and senior high school students have presented their research. Meet researchers who are active in society,
This year marks the 14th year of the Science Castle, which has served as a place for the next generation of researchers to leave their nests.
And 2025.
To further expand the value of the research being undertaken by the next generation of researchers and to further expand the world of Science Castle,
The first "Science Castle World" will be held.
This convention offers more opportunities for presentations and time for interaction than ever before.
More than 60 research presentations will be gathered not only from all over Japan but also from overseas, and more than 200 abstracts will be gathered at the Poster Grand Exchange, which will be joined by the adopters of the educational program at RIVANES.
In addition, a record number of special events will offer a variety of hands-on opportunities, including experimental classes and workshops by partner companies.
Moments of discussion about the appeal of research and the creation of new connections should be generated here.
This tournament is,Collaboration Agreement between Tokyo University of Science and Liverness Co.The two parties will co-sponsor the event in accordance with the
To this end, we will strengthen our collaboration with academia, including the Tokyo University of Science, and support the challenges of next-generation researchers through the participation of numerous graduate students and young researchers as "research coaches".
Corporate partners who share the philosophy of "creating the future together with the next generation of researchers" will also gather to discuss research that transcends generations and positions.
Science Castle World 2025 is,
We will enhance each individual's research perspective and develop their potential,
We aim to expand the "world" itself in which the next generation of researchers will be involved.
Whether you are already researching or want to start
Please visit the venue with genuine interest and passion in mind.
I sincerely look forward to meeting you all!

Tokyo University of Science and Liberace have signed an MOU to promote Science Castle!
This year's Science Castle World 2025 will be held at Tokyo University of Science (ScienceTokyo), a new national university created in October 2024 through the merger of Tokyo Institute of Technology and Tokyo Medical and Dental University. A number of research coaches from the university are scheduled to participate in the event! Even if you do not plan to give a presentation, why don't you come and tour the Ookayama campus with students who are interested in Tokyo University of Science and see the graduate students and researchers of the university discussing with the next generation?

Nannochloropsis, an algae, uses photosynthesis to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and produce lipids, one of the materials that support our daily lives. Based on the knowledge that has revealed the mechanism of effective utilization of carbon dioxide through photosynthesis at the molecular level, I will talk about the challenge to change the world with the power of algae.
