From December 3–5, 2025, the 48th Annual Meeting of the Molecular Biology Society of Japan was held at Pacifico Yokohama. Two first-year master’s students from our laboratory, Ryo Kojima and Issa Watanabe, presented their research in the poster session.

Ryo Kojima presented a poster titled “Mimicking Human Gastrulation: Microprint Culture of Human iPS Cells.” Issa Watanabe presented a poster titled “Generation of Transgenic Zebrafish Expressing Human Gap Junction Proteins for Xenotransplantation of Human Cardiomyocytes.”

During the conference, they actively engaged in discussions with many researchers. It was a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas and further strengthen their motivation for future research.
