Research Exchanges
WPI-SKCM2 sponsors the exchange of students and postdocs between HU and WPI-SKCM2 nodes, including the institutions of our domestic and international PIs and co-PIs, as well as affiliate members. Notably, the WPI-SKCM2 InternKNOTship Program is an academic internship designed to allow young researchers from all over the world to visit Hiroshima University to work in collaboration with WPI-SKCM2 members in the field of knotted chiral meta matter. Additionally, postdocs are mentored by a team of three WPI-SKCM2 PIs and co-PIs from different disciplines, and ideally, different institutions and/or countries. Postdocs benefit from broad disciplinary and international perspectives as well as the opportunity to travel and work at WPI-SKCM2 node institutions.
