2016 年 7 月 20 日～8 月 9 日の 3 週間に渡り、当研究所 4 度目となる、JST さくらサイエンスプランの支援による海外学生（ポスドク含む）の受け入れを行いました。今回はハノイ工科大学(ベトナム)、インドネシア大学（インドネシア）、チュラロンコン大学(タイ)からそれぞれ 1 名、国立台湾大学（台湾）、カセサート大学(タイ)からそれぞれ2 名、モンクット王トンブリ工科大学（タイ）から 3 名、合計 10 名の大学院生及びポスドクを招へいしました。
3 週間の滞在中、参加者はそれぞれ当研究所の田中研究室、近藤研究室、伊藤研究室、西川研究室及び堤研究室に配属され、「P91（9 Cr 鋼）のプロパティおよび微細構造の解析」、「オーステナイト系ステンレス鋼のレーザ溶接時のプールの流体の可視化」、「セラミックスとグラファイトに係る接合」、「粉末冶金で作製された Ti 合金への添加元素の添加による強化」他の共同研究を実施しました。
活動初日と二日目にはオリエンテーション、当研究所施設見学、及び受け入れを行う各研究室の研究紹介などを行いました。最新機器が揃う当研究所の施設見学では各機器の利用法や用途について活発な質問があり、熱心に施設見学を行いました。滞在中は各研究室における指導教官始め、学生から様々な指導やアドバイスを貰いながら研究を進めました。
8 月 8 日（月）には当プログラムの最終報告会を開催し、各参加者は 3 週間の研究報告を行いました。短い滞在にも関わらず、充実した研究活動の様子が伺え、いずれも今後の展開が期待できる内容でした。
参加者からのコメントでは、「当研究所の充実した研究設備に感動し、研究に対する様々なインスピレーションを受けた」、「自分の研究テーマについて非常に有益なアドバイスを沢山もらい、是非再度接合研に戻って研究を続けたい」、「初めての海外渡航だったことから、研究は勿論、日本の文化や生活、食事など様々なことに多大な刺激を受けた」などの感想がありました。
この機会を通じ、これまでのさくらサイエンスプラン同様、本活動の受け入れのみで終わるのではなく今後も参加者及び派遣元の連携大学とは密な連携を図ることで、より活発な国際連携に結びつくよう、取り組みを継続します。参加者の抜粋

For the first time to Japan.
This is first time I go to a foreign country. So before coming here, I couldn’t imagine
how Japan like and I was excited for this trip.
During the time in here, there are many things impressed me. The first days, I didn’t
get used to Japanese food. But the day after that, I started to like them andrecognize Japanese food is delicious and very healthy. I really like them.
I think the traffic in Japan is very convenient, I rarely seen traffic jam, it isdifferent with my country. Because of Japanese always abide by the law. It is very
good.
I feel very lucky to me because I have some Japanese friends who participated in
Couple Internship (CIS) program with me last year. They are very funny and friendly.
They helped me a lot. They took me to eat, took me to some common place such as Expo
City, Osaka Universal. We had a great time.
During working in JWRI, I learned a lot of things. Many machines and technology thatI have been seen and used before. It is very helpful and good for me. I think that theworking environment in here is very good. The facilities and equipment are suitable forworking and research.
Although it is hot season in Japan, but I really felt good with the air in here. I liked
to walk in the evening, there are a lot of trees in the university and that made mecomfortable. I enjoy the time in here. I would like to have a chance come back toJapan, whether for work or tourism.
Again, I would like to give my sincere thanks to Prof. Tanaka, Prof. Tashiro, Prof.
Katsumata, Ms. Oba, Mr. Van Anh who helped me a lot during this time.
Thank you very much!

It was a wonderful experience to join Sakura Science Program at JWRI, Osaka
University. I have enjoyed many moments during this 3 weeks, met lots of good people,
visited some interesting places in Japan, recognize and learn about Japanese culture.
Japanese people are very kind and friendly attitude. Everything is very systematic,orderly, tidy and high technology. In Japan, it is very difficult to find trash or garbage
across the street.
I really enjoyed being a part of Ito Sensei Laboratory. It is very comfort when we are
discussing about our research. Many advance characterization in laboratory whichmakes easily us to obtained data of our experience. Finally, next time, I hope to haveanother chance visiting Japan again.

First of all, thank you so much for give a good opportunity to me to join Sakura Science
Program at JWRI 2016. I appreciated in very thing during this program. JWRI has agood atmosphere to do research due to this institute has facilities, easy toaccess(under JWRI staff) and free service. All professors have high knowledge andhigh technology. Moreover, researchers, JWRI staffs, and students are very kind. Ilearnt many new things from them. I met friends from other country and had a goodmemories during Sakura program 2016.For me, three weeks is too short to learn more inJWRI but this is first and important step to make a strong research collaboration
between Chulalongkorn University and JWRI in the near future.

First, I want to thank JWRI and JST provide us such a good opportunity for us tounderstand the laboratory and research topics in JWRI, and can do some research andexperiment with researchers in similar research background. Prof. Nishikawa's lab has
lots of excellent and complete equipment for my research topic. I can do the bonding
process, mechanical property test, thermal aging, and observation of microstructure in
here. It's very convenient and I can get the experiment results immediately, so that Ican adjust and modify my bonding process in a short time. Because my research topic
is new for my lab in Taiwan, we don't have full-equipped instruments, and I have to go
to another school to conduct several experiments. It's time-consuming and I canrarely discuss with people whose research field is similar with me. However, myresearch topic is very similar with Prof. Nishikawa's lab, so I can do all of myexperiments here and have many experiments to try. Further more, I can discuss andexchange a lot of experimental details and suggestions with the students in Prof.
Nishikawa's lab. We can learn many things by discussion and come up with many
brilliant ideas together. Thus, I have gained a lot of experience, knowledge anddifferent points of view about my research. Besides, by learning their experimental
details, I have found several good ways to improve my experiments, too.
Thus, I truly hope that I can come to Prof. Nishikawa's lab again and do more research
for a longer in this year or maybe next year! (As soon as possible :D ) I think myadvisor in Taiwan, Prof. Kao, will support me to come here and do more experiments! I
hope that we can make a good collaborative research plan in the future!
Thanks again for everything. I really enjoy staying here and the people here are very
nice. Osaka is also a very beautiful and interesting city!
Thus, if there's any collaborative research program or research plan between JWRI
and National Taiwan University, please let me know. I really want to come here again
and do more experiments, as soon as possible!
Thanks. :)Chun-An
