Received the Best Presentation Award at the international conference on polymer degradation, MoDeSt 2024.

I am pleased to announce that I received the Best Presentation Award at the 11th Conference on Modification, Degradation, and Stabilization of Polymers (MoDeSt 2024), an international conference on polymer degradation!

This was my second time participating in this conference, the first being MoDeSt 2018, held at the University of Tokyo when I was a master’s student. My first English paper was also published in the special issue of that conference, and it was through this community that I became a specialist in degradation and decomposition. During this year’s conference, several presentations referenced my work, making me feel that my efforts are beginning to bear fruit. I returned home with renewed determination to continue making significant and lasting contributions to this field.
