In 2011, Graduate School of Life Science of University of Hyogo stared
the “Leading Program” guided by the Ministry of Education, Culture,
Sports, Science and Technology.One of the unique proposals in the
program by University of Hyogo is complulsory subjects of the
practical experiment for students performed with state-of-the-art
equipments involving SPring-8, SACLA and J-PARC. To support these
practical experiments in SPring-8 and SALA, RIKEN SPring-8 Center
(RSC) is strongly linked to the establishment of RSC-University of
Hyogo Leading Program Center. This Center will contribute for the
Leading Program students to learn about the world's leading
photon-science technology while refining their research skills on the
way to becoming expert researchers in the analysis of life phenomena.
Through this program, it could be anticipated that leaders who will
use these facilities to unearth new fields of research will be cultivated.
