The Spinics Special Research Meeting was held on Thursday, October 30 and Friday, November 1 at the Reconstruction Memorial Galaxy Hall, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Ueda Campus, Iwate University, and from our laboratory, Ms. Akiyama (Size dependence of magnetic heating properties of hollow structured Fe3O4 nanoparticles with magnetic vortex structure), Mr. Tazawa (Micro magnetic field detection using YIG and microstrip line (size dependence of magnetic heating properties of hollow structured Fe3O4 nanoparticles with magnetic vortex structure), Mr. Tazawa (micro magnetic field detection by YIG and microstrip line sensor), and Mr. Masui (ferromagnetic resonance evaluation of magnetic nanoparticles and proteins in ultra-wide bandwidth) gave presentations (titles in parentheses). Mr. Tazawa […]

On Thursday, October 24, the Tohoku University Electrical and Information Technology Collaboration Forum was held at the Research Institute of Electrical Communication, Tohoku University. Our laboratory and Tohoku-TMIT Corporation (a start-up company of which Mr. Okita and Mr. Yabukami are the representative directors) demonstrated and exhibited permeability measurement probes and portable sensors for microorganisms and proteins (the photo shows an explanation). Mr. Mashiko, Mr. Tohtake, Mr. Imai, Mr. Okita, and Mr. Yabukami, who are researching related topics, were in charge of explanations. The visitors were quite different from those at the Open Campus, Science Day, Children’s Campus, etc. This time, the visitors were mainly working people, companies, and university staff,

The Autumn Vacation Children’s Campus is a collaborative event (now in its 17th year) between the Sendai City Board of Education and the Tohoku University School of Engineering. Sixth graders in Sendai who love science and crafts are invited to experience experiments and practical training at Tohoku University’s School of Engineering. This year, Dr. Aoki, who herself is a mother of elementary school students, took the lead, and Ryota Suzuki, Mashiko, Shinohara, Kamishima, Inoue, and Ms. Takamatsu worked with 32 sixth graders over two days as assistants. They conducted an experiment to make a one-yen coin fly by applying an impulse current (an electric current that instantaneously passes electricity charged

On September 25th and 26th, we held a laboratory tour for third-year students in Room 308 and online. Following the online tour in the morning, in the afternoon, we exhibited deformed demonstrations of the research content (magnetic heating, environmental power generation, rotation of magnetic particles and antigens, magnetic guidance of catheters) and tried to explain it to the third-year students in an easy-to-understand manner. Since it overlapped with the academic conference of the Magnetics Society of Japan, about half of the students in the laboratory were on a business trip to Akita University, but we would like to thank the students who took part in the online explanation, preparation and

Tohoku University Open Campus was held on July 30 and 31, and Yabukami, Kuwahata, and Aoki (Ei) Lab. gave demonstrations, demonstrations, and displays on the second floor of the Electrical and Information Engineering Building No. 1. In addition to last year’s activities, we conducted hands-on experiments such as environmental power generation by Dr. Aoki, falling magnets, and catheter induction by Mr. Imazaki and Mr. Kamijima, etc. For two days there was no break in the flow of visitors, and students in our lab worked almost continuously to explain things to visitors. I felt that the elementary, junior high, and high school students who visited our lab were happy to participate

On Sunday, July 14, Science Day was held at Tohoku University’s Kawauchi Campus, and we exhibited in the framework of the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering. From our laboratory, we demonstrated “Let’s make an impulse current to make a one-yen coin fly” and “Let’s move a model with muscle electricity” and let visitors experience them. The event was a great success with visitors continuing to come throughout the day, and Mr. Suzuki, Mr. Mashiko, and Mr. Shinohara were very busy in charge of the event. It was impressive to see the visiting elementary school students’ eyes shining as they repeatedly sent one-yen coins flying up to the ceiling. For more

On August 3 (Thu.) and 4 (Fri.), the summer vacation children’s science campus event for 16 science-loving sixth graders in Sendai City at the Center for Creative Engineering was held. Under the title of “Let’s Play with Various Electricities (from Lightning to Heart Electricity),” the students made a one-yen coin fly to the ceiling using an impulse generator circuit and a self-made coil, and used myoelectric signals to move a model and a drone. The participating students, all of whom are science and craft enthusiasts, seemed interested in the project, and all were able to complete the set tasks. After the training, the students came to visit our laboratory. Ryota

Name of Awardee: Youcheng PuTitle of the paper: Method for Rapid Detection of Bacteria Using Magnetic Nanoparticle Aggregates The MSJ Encouragement Award was established to encourage students to submit papers and to nurture future researchers. The award is not based on the quality of the paper, but rather on its originality, originality, logical development, and future prospects. Congratulations! We look forward to your continued success in the future.
