The research team, including Mr. Ryosuke Kido,a second-year doctoral fellow and Takayuki Doi, professor at the Faculty of Science and Engineering Department of Molecular Chemistry and Biochemistry develop a quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery with improved stability, safety, and longevity.
Electric devices and vehicles offer a sustainable and economical alternative to fuel-driven machines. However, concerns about the safety and longevity of conventional lithium ion batteries (LIBs) persist. A study from Doshisha University aimed to develop a novel flame-retardant quasi-solid-state battery by combining solid and liquid electrolytes. With higher safety and durability and improved performance, the new LIB has the potential to transform the applications of electric vehicles and devices.

Professor Stefanie Alexa Stadler, Faculty of Letters Department of English, discusses how cultural differences can affect the dynamics of informal communications in a new linguistic report.
Intercultural communication is vital in today’s growing and connected world. However, differences in cultural and linguistic practices often result in miscommunication. Emphasizing the relevance of culture in informal communication, Professor Stadler explores how cultural differences can affect interaction patterns. The study discusses diverse interactions from East and Southeast Asian settings to reveal how culture often becomes the focal point in conversation, which plays a vital role in international communication.

Professor Kojiro Ishii, Faculty of Health and Sports Science, and his team reveal subjective walking speed as a quick, equipment-free tool for identifying metabolic health risks.
Ishii’s team has found that subjective walking speed, assessed by asking individuals to compare their pace with peers, is linked to lower odds of metabolic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia in individuals with obesity. This simple, equipment-free assessment could serve as an effective tool in health examinations, paving the way for earlier interventions to prevent the “metabolic domino effect” triggered by obesity-related disorders.
