It was a wonderful experience with wonderful courses, friendly support staffs and outstanding beamline scientists, and, of course, delicious food. Driven by our interest in neutron science, we came together from all over the world to learn and progress together. Please cherish every day in this school. Don't be shy, be brave to communicate with others and don't waste this precious opportunity.

Through the school, I leaned basics of the experiment using neutron and muon. I spent a wonderful time as it was the first time to attend an event like this and the contents were so interesting. In the hands-on lecture, we conducted the neutron diffraction experiment. Besides learning basic operation procedures, we were trained to analyze acquired data. Although the analysis was tough work, I was excited with an interesting result that cannot be obtained by the other methods. I had discussions with many researchers during the school and it was fruitful for finding new insights and research topics. The school would be very effective for young scientists not only to start the neutron or muon experiment but also to enhance their research field.
