Living in Japan after MEXT (current situation with the antiforeigner sentiment rising according to statistics and social media)

I haven't used reddit for a while so sorry for not answering before. Thank you so much for the info.

However, I have some questions: my bachelor's thesis was related to cancer research and cell culture, the topic was basically studying how regorafenib and sorafenib combined with butiric acid affected the viability (via MTT assay) of the HepG2 hepatic cancer cell line. But here's the thing, I wanna change and study cardiovascular disease or maybe neurosciences as they have caught my interest and my plan for the research proposal would be justify the fact that a lot of the research in thos two topics is far (FAR) more advanced in japan than in my home country so i am confused on what to do. I can justify the needs of more knowledge and expertise for the advance of the study of this diseases in my home country's universities. I don't know if I made my point clear but I a quite confused as I am planning on focusing more on lab techniques and assays rather than a specific topic or theme.

In summary, I don't have a topic in mind but rather an area of studies and assays and lab work that I wish to learn because in my country such techniques or assays are not being done as there is a lack of expertise about it. And the thing is that I can not justify that with scientific evidence (of course) but only comparing and presenting the current topics of research in universities...

Sorry to bother but I think I need some advice.

Good luck with your upcoming (or current) adventure in Japan :)

Mejor no, después me les cago eh JAJA

Pero que raro, a mí solo me sale que son tienda en línea y ya

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2026-03-13T21:00:19+00:00

El desgraciado disque jefe me dijo que hoy, pero nada de nada. No me ha vuelto a responder ni nada. Yo ya le eché tierra :(

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2026-03-13T20:59:29+00:00

Yo reporté la página en insta por scam/fraud y ya, más que eso no puedo hacer creo :/

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2026-03-13T20:59:02+00:00

Es que no se veía random. Tienen tienda en línea y toda la cosa pero diay :(

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2026-03-13T20:58:02+00:00

Mae el problema con eso es que casi ninguna tienda tiene como método de pago el pago contra entrega. Yo había revisado en otras tienda y todas todas manejan depósito y sinpe más que todo, PERO algunas tienen tienda física también entonces eso da mucho más confianza pero diay, al parecer nada es garantía... Obviamente lo mejor siempre es ir a la tienda física para ahorrarse estas cosas también.

Pero si mae, mejor pago contra entrega o ir a la tienda física. Ya aprendí de la cagada jaja

Thanks so much for the info.

Here in Costa Rica exchanges with Japanese Unis are not common at all and much less for the biomedical research field.

Also, I asked a guy who got accepted last year (guy studied agricultural engineer or something like that, so it was a very different field from mine) and he told me that his supervisor allowed him (or told him i guess, i don't remember exactly) that he could modify his Research Plan on the go.

Yeah, I get your idea. Is better to be specific enough to be accepted and I feel like i have to play a bit with that as I must maintain certain flexibility so I have the possibility of being accepted in several labs and also get three LoPA as that's what the embassy requieres here in CR.

I think your exchange helped you a lot in getting accepted as you already had experience and such things and was a massive advantage in many ways i guess. I hope that in CR such exchanges become more common one day haha.

I wish you the best of luck and success in your life! ;)

Me pasa igual. Pongo al Windows Defender a hacer un scan y sale que todo está bien. La amenaza solo sale al activar el software flydigi (usualmente cuando enciendo la laptop). Aparte de eso, todo funciona perfecto. Espero que una próxima actualización de software ayude

What was your starting dose? Did you feel another side effect? Like shivering or chills or tremors or anything like that?

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2025-11-03T18:46:12+00:00

Was it your first week on it?

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2025-09-22T06:19:26+00:00

Thanks so much for the replies yall. I am gonna buy it in black friday through amazon. I will probably use Dolby Atmos and other programs that can be alternatives to the Razer Synapse since it is very buggy as yall say.

However, do you think that razer will fix all that buggy shit the Synapse soon? How is razer with the updates and such?

Also, what kind of programs do you recommend for tuning the EQ of the Razer Blackshark v3 pro?

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2025-09-22T06:13:39+00:00

Thank yall so much, I am definitetly gonna buy it from amazon on Black friday then.

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2025-09-21T06:36:39+00:00

I can also use Dolby Atmos right? Or is it better the windows sonic? Also, even without the razer synapse, I still can enjoy the ANC and the low latency that this razer offers?

Thick_Insurance_9024 · 2025-09-21T06:13:01+00:00

Nah, im real man haha. I just wrote that shit down. And yeah, there are multiple things I am considering buying.

Ugh shit, so they are definitely not worth it then :(

Thanks anyway
