COVER STORY
Rising Stars Ⅱ

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 cooperation, international exchange, research collaboration, academic social activity around SPSJ, outreach activity, and so on. Students! You may become new candidates to join their laboratories. SPSJ members! Now you have new partners for collaboration and for setting-up alliances with them. With your warm encouragement, catch the enthusiastic policies of the young leaders who will take the prominent roles in next generation polymer science.

Editors: IYODA, AKIYOSHI, UOZU and SERIZAWA
