==== Group Meetings and seminars ====

  * [[:public:meeting2024|Group meetings in 2024]].
  * [[:public:learning2024|Book reading in 2024]]
  * [[:public:discussion2024|Individual discussion with Prof. Zhao in 2024]]

Be on time

  * **Speakers**  shall arrive 10 minutes before to prepare the meeting (open the door, prepare the projector, air conditioner, light, curtain, tables, chairs, etc).
  * **Non-speakers**  arrive 5 minutes before. You can help the speakers in preparation.
  * Gonna to be **late**? Send an email to ML before the seminar. If you are going to be **absent**, please inform Prof. Zhao at least one day before.

==== How to research ====

  * [[:public:howto|How to start]]
  * (**Must**) Find the literature from high-quality databases Web of Science and SCOPUS (Google scholar is considered a low-quality database). See [[https://www.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp/erdb/13505|https://www.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp/erdb/13505]] for how to access those paid service.
  * (**Must**) Use a reference management software instead of manual management. If you don't know which one is the best, try [[https://www.zotero.org/|Zotero]].
  * How to write business email（in Japanese）[[https://tech.nikkeibp.co.jp/atcl/nxt/column/18/00667/032800002/|https://tech.nikkeibp.co.jp/atcl/nxt/column/18/00667/032800002/]]
  * How to write a research paper: [[https://aw.gsais.kyoto-u.ac.jp/research/template-of-a-research-paper|https://aw.gsais.kyoto-u.ac.jp/research/template-of-a-research-paper]]
  * How to do research (in Chinese） [[https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/85pGxXidvCDXgM9_S73WYQ|https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/85pGxXidvCDXgM9_S73WYQ]]
  * 美国教授写给被开除的中国学生的信（中文, Chinese） [[https://m.jjl.cn/case/218000.html|https://m.jjl.cn/case/218000.html]]
  * Use latex instead of Word for professional writing. You can [[https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Learn_LaTeX_in_30_minutes|learn latex in 30 minutes]] and/or use [[https://www.overleaf.com/learn|Overleaf]].
  * Use Linux instead of Windows/Mac OS for professional works. I personally like [[https://linuxmint.com/|Linux Mint]] (MATE edition) but of course other distributions or editions are also OK. You may consider to use dual boot (Linux + Windows/Mac OS) for better experience.

==== On paper and slides ====

  * **Paper**  should follow the format for QE (see a template in LaTeX). It can be incomplete but should be prepared carefully. Please submit the source file (or a compressed archive if there are more than two source files) and a PDF.
  * **Presentation file**  contains the slides. If you modified the slides after uploading, please re-upload it again.
  * Uploading is done by Media Manager. Please name your file as date-name-filetype.ext such as 20170410-liangz-slides.pdf.
  * Put time & event information in your presentation.
  * Add citations of the information (even in the presentation file) that are not your own works.
  * Analyze or demonstrate how your research is related to what you introduced and why your research may help.

==== Paper/Document writing and submitting ====

  * Step 1: Try a free English Grammar Check (**Please submit your document after this check**): [[https://www.grammarly.com|https://www.grammarly.com]]
  * Step 2: Try a free translation service (**Please use this service if you are not sure about your English**): [[https://www.deepl.com/translator|https://www.deepl.com/translator]]
  * (NEW) Step 3: Try to refine your article with chatGPT ([[https://chat.openai.com|https://chat.openai.com]] → ask it to refine an article).
  * Always submit documents **one day before the deadline**, since you may miss it due to some unexpected happening on the deadline day.
  * If you need Prof. Zhao to review a document for you, please contact his at least three days before the deadline.

==== Official language ====

  * The official languages are English **and**  Japanese.

==== Your personal namespace ====

  * Create a personal namespace **user:yourname**  (e.g., user:liang) and put all your documents (paper, slides, other files) in that namespace by the Media Manager. See {{:general:wiki-namespace.pdf|an illustration}}.

==== Appointment with Prof. Zhao ====

  * Usually please ask for an appointment one week before (two weeks preferred)
  * For recommendation letter, please try to provide a draft first one week before the deadline.

==== The difference of QE paper and Master thesis ====

**Master's Thesis**: A complete academic paper containing novel research findings (of a quality that can be submitted to peer-reviewed journals).

**QE Paper**: A progress report towards a doctoral thesis. As a 'draft of the doctoral dissertation', it not only requires a survey and summary of previous research, but also demands original thought and understanding of primary data. Additionally, the QE paper must include the following three descriptions:

  - Prospects towards the doctoral thesis (showing the overall picture of the doctoral thesis).
  - Relation to Musya-Shugyo and PBR.
  - Relation to societal problem-solving required in the study of Human Survivability Studies.

The abstract should also refer to these three points.

If submitting both a master's thesis and a QE paper simultaneously, differentiate the abstracts of the two. However, the content of presentations at QE should include the aforementioned three points from the QE paper.

Before undergoing a review for either the master's or QE paper, it is mandatory to conduct a meeting with the two (or three) supervisors. Only after receiving their approval, along with the meeting record, can one apply for the review.

■QE 論文:博士論文に至る途中経過の報告。「博士学位請求論文草稿」であることか

められる。また、QE 論文には以下123の記述が求められる。
1 博士論文にむけての展望(博士論文の全体像を示す)
2 武者修行や PBR との関係
3 総合生存学の研究に求められる社会課題解決との関係
アブストラクトにも123への言及が必要
◎修士論文と QE 論文を同時に提出する場合、差別化のために両者のアブストラクト
