Yoshikazu Ohya is a microbiologist and doctor in biological sciences from the University of Tokyo. During the first years of his career, he graduated from the University of Tokyo and then moved to Stanford University. After working with David Botstein, he moved back to the University of Tokyo. His research interest is in fundamental theories and concepts of eukaryotic cells and their applications. For this purpose, he used the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism, using bioimaging technology and cell biology techniques. Multivariate analysis with morphological data provided high-dimensional phenotypic information of all individual mutant strains of the budding yeast. Comprehensive analysis of mutant strains revealed new genetic dogmas, discovered close relationships between gene function and morphological phenotype, elucidated new gene functions, and classified mutant strains by clustering based on morphological information. He has also conducted target prediction and identification of compounds.

Prof. Howard E. Gendelman (born March 18, 1954) is an American physician-scientist whose research intersects the disciplines of neuroimmunology, pharmacology, and infectious diseases. Gendelman was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is renowned for his research in harnessing immune responses for therapeutic gain in HIV/AIDS and Neurodegenerative disease. He is an author, editor, educator, and mentor. Since 2004, he has held the position of Margaret R. Larson Professor of infectious diseases and internal medicine at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in Omaha. He is the founding chair of the Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience, director of the Center for Neurodegenerative Disorders, and the head of the Carol Swarts MD Neuroscience Laboratory. Gendelman possesses an H-index of 113,[2] authored more than 550 peer-reviewed publications, edited 17 books and monographs, is the recipient of numerous national and international research and mentoring awards, and holds 38 patents. He was the founding editor-in-chief of the Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology[3] (2004–2021) and currently leads the journal NeuroImmune Pharmacology and Therapeutics[4] (2022–present). Gendelman's group was among the first to reverse HIV-dementia in an infected person using combination antiretroviral therapy (ART), and they developed scores of rodent models to mimic HIV/AIDS end-organ disease.[12][13][14] He coined the term long-acting slow effective release ART (LASER ART). These works led to polymer discovery, targeted drug delivery to viral reservoirs, and reduction of residual virus in lymphoid organs. His research group was also the first to combine HIV reservoir-targeted LASER ART and CRISPR-Cas9 to eliminate chronic viral infection from infected animals. This curative approach (published in Nature Communications, 2019) received considerable attention in establishing a novel translational pathway for HIV eradication. This work followed the first ultra-long acting nanocrystal prodrug and the world's first HIV vaccine mimetic[18][19] (in Nature Materials, 2020). His work with cell-based drug delivery born out of nanoparticle-mononuclear phagocyte interactions has inspired broad pharmaceutical interest; in turn, Gendelman led the establishment of the Nebraska Nanomedicine Production Plant,[20]a biotechnology good manufacturing practices (cGMP) initiative, to position research for clinical translation in the development of long acting nanoformulated ART at UNMC. He also co-founded Exavir Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company developing therapies towards and cure for HIV/AIDS.

Alain is a visionary and scientific thinker seemingly ahead of his time—exploring the edges, pioneering breakthroughs in multiple domains, even creating new fields of practice. Now he is weaving it all together to help society come together like never before, to help lead us to a better future. Starting off in Artificial Intelligence through his undergraduate studies, early work life, and graduate studies at Yale, Alain was on the development team that pioneered the first Knowledge Engineering Environment (KEE). Alain continued to expand his knowledge at Price Waterhouse, delivering complex information technology solutions for clients. After discovering the deep wealth of knowledge in improvisation, Alain engaged practitioners across the world to found the field of Applied Improvisation. Founding and leading Creative Advantage, an innovation consultancy firm, Alain added facilitation, creativity, and innovation skills to become a breakthrough innovation specialist. Birthing programs for executive and leadership teams globally in the public and private sectors, Alain served > 30 of the Fortune 500, including Bristol-Myers, Merck, Humana, Kraft, Starbucks, General Mills, General Electric, Saint-Gobain, Bank of America, and Intel. In 2016, Alain discovered how to articulate the healing power of our internal voice of unconditional love, bottling it in a self-guided meditation app, LOVEx.com. In 2018, with science-based sustainability solutions urgently needed, Alain started Clean Research, a non-profit designed to approach sustainability opportunity areas from a collaborative knowledge-building perspective from the start of the process. Leading 9 experts with > 30 scientists contributing complementary knowledge across organizational boundaries, Alain senior-authored a peer-reviewed scientific paper (2020), “A More Open Approach Is Needed to Develop Cell-Based Fish Technology.” The work, commissioned by One Earth, a top-tier sustainability science journal from Cell Press, demonstrates the value of truth-telling and collaboration in tackling our grand sustainability challenges. In the process of working closely with the very knowledgeable editorial team of One Earth, Alain came to learn that our grand challenges aren’t being addressed correctly at all. For one, they require fully transdisciplinary approaches, engaging the participation from many different types of experts with relevant knowledge from the start of the problem-solving process. Since today’s systems for advancing science, technology, and innovation do not support an ideal, speed-focused, virtually boundless, and knowledge-based approach, Alain blueprinted a new system for accelerating innovation. An 18-month facilitated innovation process is poised to deliver deep knowledge, breakthrough insights, and high value into multiple transdisciplinary challenge spaces such as carbon sequestration and grid-energy storage. With everything at stake, we win together. KEY EXPERTISE AREAS • Collaborative discovery of knowledge and insights for breakthrough innovation • Leadership, facilitation, collaboration, and co-creation • Navigating the unknown and improvisation • Systems integration, software engineering, and scale-up • Whole-systems thinking • Whole-systems thinking
