On June 26^th, we held a farewell party for Dr. Yasuhiko Yamaguchi who will be starting his new career at the Lake Biwa Environmental Research Institute from July 2017.

Dr. Yamaguchi has been a good adviser for researchers and students in our lab for 1 years and 2 months. Participants enjoyed discussion on research themes as well as other various topics in a casual atmosphere.

The Marine Biogeochemistry Group provides various types of interactions between researchers considering that the development of networking is very important.
