The number of participating students has grown from 252 at the 2012 conference to 1,631 by the 2019 conference, a six-fold increase, making it one of the largest conferences in Asia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And this year, Science Castle will be updated from \"a place to present research\" to \"a place to make new friends\". Because each student has different interests, the research topics presented at this event are diverse. Science Castle maximizes this \"diversity\" and creates connections not only among junior and senior high school student researchers, but also with researchers from companies, universities, and research institutes. In addition to oral and poster presentations, there will be many opportunities to integrate each other's knowledge, including sessions in which research presentations are relayed overseas and discussions between junior high and high school students and researchers from partner companies and universities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The catalyst for creating new chemical reactions is the passion of each participant. That is why we would like all junior and senior high school student researchers to present the results of their research, which they have been working on step by step without giving up, with their own thoughts and feelings. We will be there with as much passion as you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The members of the Science Castle Management Office and I are looking forward to meeting you all at the various venues!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"td_btn td_btn_lg td_default_btn\" style=\"font-size: 18pt;color: #ffffff\"><a style=\"color: #ffffff\" href=\"https:\/\/s-castle.com\/entry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>Click here to enter<\/b><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Science Castle 2020 Overview<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2020<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fiscal year,<del>2 tournaments outside Japan (Malaysia and Singapore)<\/del>The ASEAN Convention and two domestic conventions (Kanto and Kansai) are scheduled to be held in Japan.
