この度、オーストラリアのMonash大学と大阪大学医学系研究科の合同で上記のシンポジウムを開催します。
2019年から、COVID-19パンデミック下においても中断することなく毎年開催しており、今年で４回目となります。
両大学の特徴的かつ最先端の医学、ライフサイエンス系の研究テーマについて意見交換を行うシンポジウムです。
医学系研究科はこれまでのシンポジウムを通じて、Monash大学と人事交流や共同研究を進めてまいりました。
さらに本年８月、大阪大学はMonash大学と戦略的パートナーシップ協定を締結しています。
そのようななか、このシンポジウムは、既存の共同研究を推進するのみならず、本学とMonash大学との新たな連携を生み出すことを期して開催いたします。
ライフサイエンスがご専門の方、本学の国際連携にご興味がある方、みなさま、積極的にご参加ください。
（全編英語で実施します）
