US-ATMC Visiting Scholars Get-together


Last month US-ATMC hosted a lunch with many of our affiliates before they dispersed for the summer. We welcomed our newest Visiting Scholar Akifumi Ishii from Hamamatsu Iwata Shinkin Bank who replaced his colleague Hiroaki Kaneko. And we sadly bidded farewells to Hiroyuki Ito, Takuro Hoshi, and Shinichi Ogawa whose appointments end this summer. For those outgoing Visiting Scholars, we wish you all the best!
