【Content】JSPS international leading research project “Design of Low Entropy Polymer Network Materials for Unique Functions” has been launched. This project focuses on low entropy polymer networks (LeNet) that realize unique mechanical properties and functions derived from their structures. LeNet is a collaborative project between Japan, U.S., and EU teams. Young researchers involved in this project will stay abroad for a long period and engage in world-class research under the supervision of both the Japan and overseas teams (we are looking for highly motivated researchers!). In this kick-off symposium, LeNet members will introduce what LeNet is and what makes it interesting mechanically and functionally from various facets in terms of synthesis, analysis, and function.
