The Japanese Rhinologic Society has held a “Hands-on Seminar on Basic Research for Clinicians” led by the Society since 2014. The purpose of these seminars is to raise the motivation and research skills with regard to basic research, and in turn to encourage interdisciplinary collaboration through research with universities. The sixth seminar was held at the 58th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Rhinologic Society in Tokyo. Four methods were discussed: collecting blood and injecting drugs into mice by video, next-generation sequencing, multiplex assay, and preparation of fresh-frozen sections with Kawamoto’s film method. A post-event questionnaire indicated that 93% of the participants were satisfied with the seminar. This suggests that the seminar was effective in introducing the new techniques and promoting a strong community-university partnership.
