Message from ASRC Director General, Koki Takanashi

This year the Advanced Science Research Center at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency is celebrating its 30th anniversary.
Throughout this period, our research center managed to navigate successfully through several changes, such as the reorganization of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) into JAEA, and came to celebrate its 30th anniversary.
I am deeply grateful for the tremendous support that we received from the large community of colleagues and friends involved in fundamental research.

Therefore, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of its establishment, we will be holding a commemorative event to reflect on the history of Advanced Science Research Center and to think about our future.

If your schedule allows it I kindly ask you to attend.
