Japan, June 2025

I had the great chance to visit University of Tokyo and give a Key Note Lecture at ACW 2025 at Hokkaido University. I was impressed to discuss and learn about the latest research from leading groups in JAPAN and ASIA. Thank you to Professor Keisuke Nagato (Mechanical Engineering, Univ. Tokyo) for introducing me to his group and research and showing me around at his impressive labs with e.g. the latest AI assistant coating & drying robot systems and through the historic buildings of University of Tokyo.

Especially thank you to my Japanese colleagues Professor Yamamura (Kyushu Institute of Technology) and Professor Yoshiko Tsuji (Chemical Engineering, University of Tokyo) and the Chair of the ACS in 2025 in Hokkaido.

Thank you for this very nice experience in JAPAN, I enjoyed it a lot.
