This retreat is an important annual meeting for IRCN members, which has resumed after a period of interruption due to the coronavirus pandemic. A total of 70 participants attended, ranging from all IRCN Principal Investigators (PIs), Core Managers, and newly established Affiliated Principal Investigators, to researchers, students, and internship students from overseas staying at IRCN laboratories, Affiliated Faculty, and young researchers from related institutions. The program unfolded with an orientation by the Director, Dr. Hensch, followed by a \u2018Pitch Talk\u2019 session in which PIs, Core Managers, and Affiliated PIs were given five minutes to introduce their labs\u2019 features and the joys of research to young researchers. A breakout session, divided into ten groups, created academic interaction in the mix of labs and job titles. The poster presentation session featured about 40 presentations, and many attendees were seen delving deep into their own research and exchanging ideas, providing a forum where the excitement of research could be felt. The optional cocktail party further strengthened the bonds and networking among the participants. The two-day retreat gave us a sense of its potential to develop into collaborative research across laboratory boundaries.<br \/>\n<W br><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"686\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-29706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-300x103.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-1024x351.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-768x263.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-1536x527.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-160x55.jpg 160w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-947x325.jpg 947w, https:\/\/ircn.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_5954-624x214.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The IRCN Retreat 2024 was held at the Makuhari International Training Center on Thursday, October 24 and Friday, October 25.
