CREATE YOURSELF USING CHEMISTRY
Chemistry could be the science for expressing your character. While physics and biology may be measured by how quickly you can reach the final endpoint, chemistry can result in a variety of new skills and materials along the journey, leading to creativity and originality at every point of your research. When I was a student in Kyoto, I was fortunate enough to study under professors who fostered a great environment to conduct research independently, and this motivated me very much. I am a firm believer that students can take proactive approaches to problem solving if they are provided with significant and exciting targets that cause them to act spontaneously, and can result in high praise from society for their talents and insights. I find that I am always trying to start and nish the job quickly ― probably because I was a 100-meter sprinter in my youth ― so I feel that concentration and relaxation are important in the lives of young researchers, and serve to bring out the best of you using your own chemistry.
