Bio | CV | Publications

Dr. Toshikazu Yoshikawa, 72, was educated Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan. Graduated at 1973, Licensed Medical Doctor (M.D.) at 1973 and Dr. Medicine (Ph.D.) at 1983. After acting as President of Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, he is now President of Louis Pasteur Center for Medical Research, President of Japan Anti-Aging Foundation, Emeritus Professor, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Emeritus President of the Society for Free Radical Research (SFRR) Japan, and Emeritus President of Japanese Society of Anti-Aging Medicine.

Specialized in medicine, he has worked in various fields such as gastroenterology, free radical science, preventive medicine, food nutrition, disease biomarkers, genomics, proteomics, and lipidomics.

Having started free radical and reactive oxygen species (ROS) research at young, he has been an internationally respected authority of free radical research. Free radical and ROS are high reactive molecules known to involve in over 150 diseases. Since free radical and ROS are keys to preventing and treatment of diseases, he has studied the relationship between free radicals and those various diseases including cancer, intestinal and other inflammatory diseases, diabetes, dementia, male fertility, and so on. By accumulating countless studies that reveals the close relationship of free radicals and ROS to health and longevity, his total publications are over 1200, and primary research publications are over 500, cumulating above 20000 citations. In collaboration with many prominent researchers around the world, the numbers are still growing today. He has also written numerous books for both masses and professionals about free radical, preventive medicine, antiaging, and so on. As an editor, he has a carrier as editor-in-chief in “Pathophysiology”, an official Journal of the International Society for Pathophysiology, and “Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition”, an official Journal of the Society for Free Radical Research Japan .

Dr. Yoshikawa’s contributions to free radical study are not limited to publishing papers. He has founded many associations such as Society for Free Radical Research Japan, which is the Japanese branch of worldwide Society for Free Radical Research International. He was first President of the SFRR International as Japanese, leading free radical research. His carrier on council members varies such as President of the Japanese Society of Lipid Peroxide and Free Radical Research, SFRR International, President of the Japanese Society of Lipid Peroxide and Free Radical Research, President of the Japanese Society of Functional Water, and President of Internationalization of Medical Services Association.

Today, as interest in the importance of free radical is growing, his researches will receive more attention.

ROUND TABLE DISCUSSIONS
A round table discussion open to everyone interested will be organized at a specific date and time during the symposium. It will be a platform for high level representatives of various industries, technologies, and academic disciplines to freely discuss and debate all topics of this symposium, and identify positive and efficient pathways towards sustainability in industrial practices, technologies, and research.
You are cordially invited to actively participate in this symposium by submitting and presenting a paper, or by attending the round table. We look forward to meeting you in Phuket, December 2020.

Dr. Haruhiko Inufusa was born Okayama Japan at 1957. After finished Medical School Kindai University at 1982, he starts work at Surgery department of Kindai University Hospital. At the period of post graduate school of Kindai University, he started research of cancer especially on metastasis phenomenon. He established various cancer cell lines, and one cell line had potential of metastasis in nude mouse. He achieved principal graduation by this research result at 1988. Cancer and glycolipid was his main research target during his post doctor fellowship position 1988-1990 at University Washington Seattle, Professor Sen-itchiro Hakomori laboratory,. Later, he found that Lewis Y glycolipid of cancer controls blood coagulation and metastasis as well.
In 2001, he was promoted professor at Kindai University School of Medicine (Department of Surgery) and Faculty of Agriculture (Department of Clinical Nutrition). Acting as a surgeon, he was one of first 15 doctors in Japan who started laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer, and his surgical video was widely used to educate young doctors.
In 2006 he resigned from his position of Director of Advanced Medical Technology and Medical Economics, at Kindai University School of Medicine. He starts research on alcohol, sugar, and fat metabolism at TIMA Japan Inc. which supported by TIMA foundation. After invention of anti-alcohol supplement SUPLAIV, he invented Twendee X that activate sugar and fat metabolisms. Strong anti-oxidant effects of Twendee X were found at 2011, he starts producing and marketing SUPAILV and Twendee X by the request of TIMA foundation. At 2013, Gifu university started his laboratory Division of Antioxidant Research. His present main invention is the successful treatment of various patients with Twendee X.

Christian Amatore, 65, was educated at Ecole Normale Superieure (ENS), the leading French center for higher education and research. He held the former position of Louis Pasteur at ENS. He is now Emeritus Director of Research in CNRS, Full Member of the French Academie des Sciences where he served as a vice-President in charge of Education, Foreign Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Member of the Academia Europae, Member of The Third World Academy of Sciences, Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and of the Chinese Chemical Society, Honorary Member of the Israeli Chemical Society, Distinguished Scientist of the French Chemical Society, President and now Past President of the International Society of Electrochemistry. Over the past years he acted as one of the twenty members of the High Council of Science and Technology which advised the French Governments on scientific matters. He has been thrice knighted by the French Republic in the Order of National Merits, the Order of Legion d'Honneur for his scientific achievements, as well in the Order of Academic Palms for his deep involvement for scientific education in universities but also in elementary, middle and high schools.
His researches involve the development of advanced electrochemical concepts, methodologies and instrumentation for investigating extremely complex mechanisms of organic and organometallic chemistry under the very conditions used by synthetic chemists. Amatore's activity in molecular kinetics is best illustrated by the rationalization of electron transfer catalysis, electron transfer activation of molecules and more recently by a thorough series of works relative to the elucidation of the most important mechanistic aspects of catalysis by homogeneous palladium complexes, an extremely active area in today's catalysis for carbon-carbon bond making in fine chemical industry. The well recognized contributions of Amatore's group in this area have opened new views for rationalizing these important processes which have already led to the development of new synthetic strategies.
Amatore's contributions gave electrochemistry new concepts and new tools that are essential in offering electrochemistry new entries in several mechanistic problems in organic, inorganic, and organometallic chemistries and more recently into the biology of living cells. His researches were published in 485 primary research publications cumulating above 21 100 citations and corresponding to a "h-index" of 73 (ISI Web of Science, May 2017) with an average citations rate above 1 200 per year over the past 5 years. Amatore received many important French and international awards and distinctions among which the Silver Medal (CNRS), the Reilley Award (SEAC), the de Broglie Medal (Academia dei Lincei), the Bourke Medal (RSC), the Galvani Medal (SCI), the Breyer Medal (RACI), the Heyrovsky award (Charles University, Prague), the Faraday Medal (RSC), and the Volta Medal (ECS). He has been distinguished lecturer in many outstanding universities (Royal Society (London), Oxford, Durham, Cornell, Pittsburgh, Prague, Caltech, Padova, Modena, Roma La Sapienza, Japan JSPS, Bologna, etc.) and is Honorary Professor or Doctor Honoris Causa of several universities in Europe and Asia.
