AIMR Exhibited at the 19th International Symposium on Material–Hydrogen Systems (MH2026)

November 9, 2026

AIMR exhibited a booth over four days from Monday, October 26 to Thursday, October 29, 2026, at the 19th International Symposium on Material–Hydrogen Systems (MH2026), held at the Sendai International Center Exhibition Building.

Established in 1968, MH is a major biennial international symposium in the field of hydrogen and materials. MH2026, chaired by Shin-ichi Orimo, Director of AIMR, brought together over 500 researchers, engineers, and industry representatives from Japan and abroad. Alongside AIMR, the Green Technologies of Excellence Program (GteX)—led by Director Orimo as Team Leader and R&D Representative—also set up a booth to introduce hydrogen-related research and the latest projects at Tohoku University.

At our booth, aimed at enhancing AIMR’s international visibility, posters highlighting the institute’s features were displayed along with brochures and researcher catalogs. We introduced AIMR’s global research environment, where more than half of the researchers are international, as well as our unique initiatives based on the “3 Fields × 3 Tops” Strategy and key research achievements. Throughout the event, many visitors stopped by our booth, including researchers and students from both Japan and overseas. AIMR’s unique approach—the collaboration between materials science and mathematics—attracted significant interest, and we received inquiries regarding support systems for international researchers as well as research career opportunities in Japan.

Our booth exhibition provided a valuable opportunity to introduce AIMR to people from diverse countries and research fields, and to engage in direct dialogue with visitors. We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who visited our booth.
