We were pleased to welcome Mr. Ghaleeb Jeppie, Minister Counsellor for Science, Innovation and Education, and Mr. Daisuke Tanaka, Science and Technology Liaison Officer, from the Embassy of the Republic of South Africa in Japan to our laboratory.
During their visit, they met with Sibulele, a South African student from Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT), and Vinny, a student from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, both currently conducting research in our laboratory.
Minister Counsellor Jeppie had a warm conversation with Sibulele about his research activities and life in Japan, offering encouraging words and expressing his support for Sibulele’s future growth and success.
This visit was a valuable opportunity for our students and highlighted the importance of international connections and mutual support.
We sincerely thank Minister Counsellor Jeppie and Mr. Tanaka for taking the time to visit our laboratory.
