On August 29, 2022, Dr. Felix Moesner, Consul and Head of Post of the Consulate of Switzerland in Osaka paid a courtesy call to the Higashi-Hiroshima campus of Hiroshima University and engaged in discussion with HU President Mitsuo Ochi. The discussion was also attended by Executive Vice President in charge of Global Initiatives, Shinji Kaneko.

During the meeting, views were exchanged on the possibility of exchange and partnerships between HU and Switzerland. Afterwards, the Consul toured three of HU’s facilities: The Amphibian Research Center, The Hiroshima Synchrotron Radiation Center (HiSOR), and The Phoenix International Center, MIRAI CREA.

We hope that through this visit exchange with Swiss universities and academic institutions will be furthered.
