we were thrilled by that professor fumiyuki adachi, known as the father of
3g in japan, joined other panelists who shared their education, industry
and academic experience with a full house of undergrad, master’s and phd
students, as well as some academic and industry professionals. more info

also some students asked “I’d love to join the panel but I’m out of town
on 23 August. I wonder if you would offer the notes taken from the meeting
or the ministers of the meeting afterwards, so my friends and I wouldn’t
be worried missing the panel but still learn from it.” so some raw notes
from the students and professionals: “Prof. Adachi: to talk with others
and try to find something new! Thinking only by yourself is not possible!
Dr. Dingyi Fang: to combine your daily work with your initial dream.
(i.e., to have a vision while focusing on your research)
Dr. Jianping He: when you feel pressed like waiting for offers, just focus
on the things you can control instead of worrying about that which you can
not control.
Dr. Rose Hu: to believe yourself and believe in your capability. Work
hard! Be willing to change and never stuck. Build up strong passion! Don’t
stuck in a tiny problem!
Dr. Ming ling: To be focused on your academic trajectory at the beginning
of your career. To try your best to become a qualified principal
investigator as soon as possible.
Matt: Don’t be afraid to challenge yourself. I encourage people to be
uncomfortable and push yourself!
Dr. Humphrey Rutagemwa: Try to express yourself.” and “1. Dr. F Adachi –
