INTERNATIONAL YOUNG RESEARCHERS' CONFERENCE

​In partnership with the Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons Global Health Organization​

INTERNATIONAL YOUNG RESEARCHERS' CONFERENCE

​The International Young Researchers' Conference was founded in 2017 as a platform for high school students to share their research projects with the community. Since then, the organization has expanded to include not only research, but also community projects, global health narratives, case study competitions, and student-led programming. The IYRC is an independent public benefit incorporation in Japan, but we work with students from over twenty countries. Our program would not be possible without the generous support of our university partners, high school leaders, and reviewers.
