Alhamdulillah, I am thrilled and grateful to be awarded the prestigious and competitive JSPS Invitational Fellowship to undertake research at Hokkaido University with Professor Katsuaki Konishi for 10 months.
It is definitely a kind of once-in-a-lifetime achievement to be celebrated. Professor Konishi is one of the top guns in the field of gold cluster chemistry. He has made four major discoveries in the field.

- HCl etching as a way to synthesize size-selective stable Au clusters.
- Synthesis of core+exo structures of Au clusters.
- Chiral core framework of Au clusters using phosphine ligands.
- Assembly and aggregation of Au clusters in condensed state.
I am looking forward to learn from his expertise and experience as a grandmaster of cluster chemistry.
