Forty-eight junior high and high school students from across Asia got together in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, to attend a one-week science summer school earlier this month.
The second annual gathering, dubbed the International School of Science Summer School 2016, is a weeklong program in which students learn science together in English at Yokosuka Research Park, a special zone the city established to attract technology research and development centers.
The organizer, the International School of Science Founding Project, dubbed "ISSJ," is aiming to establish an international science school by 2020.
