On November 21, 2025, the international conference Shanghai-Kyoto Chemistry Forum was held at Fudan University in China. The forum is an international conference that aims to develop strategies for sharing research resources and equipment and identifying joint research opportunities utilizing the Kyoto University Shanghai Lab (Kyoto University On-site Laboratory), which was established in 2019. Marking the sixth year since the launch of the On-site Lab, this year’s forum—the fifth in the series—was hosted by Fudan University and featured presentations by seven researchers from the Institute for Chemical Research (ICR) and two from iCeMS, along with ten speakers from Fudan University. This year, early-career faculty members from both universities also participated, presenting research findings across a broad range of fields, including new materials, energy conversion, and chemical biology. In addition to discussions on the effective use of research resources and future directions for international collaboration, the forum provided a valuable opportunity for young researchers to gain new academic perspectives and explore future possibilities for research development.
