Rising Star
As the special topic in this New Year issue, we would like confidently to send SPSJ members hot policy speeches of our young leaders who have just organized their own research groups. These remarks reflect their outstanding achievements and enthusiasm on a wide range of topics like research, education, academicindustrial alliance, international exchange, research collaboration, academic social activity around SPSJ, outreach activity, and so on. Students! You may become new candidates to join their laboratories. The SPSJ members! Now you have new partners to do collaboration and set-up alliances with them. With your warm encouragement, catch the enthusiastic policies of the young leaders who will take the leading roles in next generation polymer science.
