Last year, an incident of misconduct involving a former employee of the university arose. In response, OIST determined that a thorough investigation into the causes and impact of the case was necessary and established a Third-Party Investigation Committee on January 31, 2025.
On June 12, the university received a report from the Third-Party Investigation Committee. The report is available in the attached document, Investigation Report (Public Version). Please note that certain portions of the report have been redacted by the Third-Party Investigation Committee to protect personal privacy and confidential information.
The English version to be published is the investigation report received by OIST from the Third-Party Investigation Committee, which has been anonymized by OIST. The committee has given its approval for OIST to carry out the anonymization process.
We would like to apologize for any concerns caused by this incident.
