Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to promote area research effectively, area meetings and general group meetings were held every six months to discuss the progress and policies of each planned research project. Furthermore, activities were carried out to achieve the goals of the area research through initiatives to support collaboration research. In addition, domestic and foreign researchers related to our research in the fields of chemistry, physics and biology were invited and seminars were organized. In addition, joint symposia were held at the Chemical Society of Japan, the Protein Science Society of Japan, the Molecular Biology Society of Japan and the Biophysical Society of Japan, where the concept, approaches and results of activities in this field were widely reported. A website was also set up and efforts made to disseminate information online. Through these activities, we achieved the scientific construction of delay-controlled supramolecular chemistry through collaboration between different fields.
