Outline of Final Research Achievements

The project overachieved. A number of papers publishedｄ in these five years was approximately1 400 and there were many patent applications. We also played an important and active role in advancing with the development of young researchers: for examples, sending a young professors abroad for a lecture trip and holding a seminar for young researchers. We also encouraged the promotion of joint R&D between academia and private companies. Weissued News Letter monthly and a total number of News Letter we issued was 50. An open symposium for public was held twice a year. We also organized International Symposium on Molecular Activation every year and supported symposia and seminars related to molecular activation.
