Corporation Lannes, together with the Benesse Children's Fund, aims to realize \"a society where children with a future can expand their potential on their own, in an environment where they can learn with peace of mind.\"
\nTo support research by middle and high school students who will lead the next generation, we established the \"Science Castle Research Grant, Benesse Children's Fund DE&I Award\" and have been supporting the research of selected middle and high school students since September 2025.
\nWe will be holding a presentation of the results of this research activity on Sunday, March 22, 2026.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The theme for this award is \"All developments and research focusing on one's own characteristics and minority status.\"
Researchers, with Professor Shinichiro Kumagai of the University of Tokyo's Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology, who is a leading figure in patient-led research, as their mentor, have supported each of the unprecedented selected researchers' study ideas, which are full of individuality and sensibility.
We encourage you to take a look at the process and results of this six-month research project and use it as an opportunity to learn about DE&I (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) initiatives led by junior and senior high school students themselves.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
