Description

The exchange meeting of mammal research was held by young researchers and graduate students in Hokkaido in September 2015. In total 31 people attended not only from Hokkaido but also form outside of Hokkaido, and the grade of participants was broad, ranging from undergraduate students to post doctors. Regardless of age, affiliate and target species, such diversity made the interaction of participants more dynamic, which was a most distinctive feature of this meeting. According to the questionnaire, participants were satisfied with the meeting and they wanted this meeting to be held regularly such as once a year or twice a year. Since some people wished the variety of contents to include not only a research meeting but also lectures on methods in field research and career support, the organizers need to consider these demands in the future. While people attended from many places, advertisement for participants officially seemed to be required in advance because 80% of participants were informed of this meeting by their colleagues. It would be important for the next meeting to spread information via mailing lists and also reflects the requirements of people who want to attend in advance. We hope that reflection on the outcome of this meeting will encourage young researchers and contribute to the development of mammal research.
