Life in Ohe Lab

Daily life Ohe lab starts at 10 am, and students make their own experimental plans by themselves depending on the progress of their research projects. We also have spring, summer, and winter holidays (about one week each).

Training of experimental skills
 New undergraduate and graduate students perform some practical experiments under the supervision of elder students for three weeks (in April), and then decide their own research projects after the discussion with Professors.

Group Seminar
We have some types of seminars to share our recent experimental results as well as the recent trends in chemistry.
Literature meeting: once per week, evening on Thursday
Monthly research meeting: once per month, on Saturday.
Research proposal: once per year, on September
