Outline of Final Research Achievements

Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic and the changes in job duties and responsibilities during the project period, the work load including student support, educational tasks, and administrative tasks significantly increased. Throughout 2020 and 2021, remote work became a frequent necessity. For these reasons, it was extremely difficult to secure effort for the research originally planned at the beginning of the project, and the research plan could not be carried out. Unfortunately, this resulted in the failure to obtain the expected research outcomes.
