JSPS core-to-core symposium 2025 "One Health Approaches to Chemical Risk Management

The Center for Marine Environmental Studies (CMES) hosted the “JSPS Core-to-Core Symposium on One Health Approaches to Chemical Risk Management in Ehime 2025” on November 18 and 19.

The event kicked off with a opening speeches by Prof. Kozo, Prof. Guo, and Assoc. Prof. Yasutsugu.

Over the two-day program, about 120 participants attended, featuring 20 oral presentations and 50 poster presentations.  Active discussions on regional challenges and practical solutions, and strengthening international research networks about intersecting topics on human health, the environment, and ecosystems, and promoting sustainable development. 

The plenary talk was delivered by Dr. Jose Isagani B. Janairo from De La Salle University (Philippines), who presented an insightful and cutting-edge talk on predicting chemical activity based on molecular complexity, attracting strong interest from the audience.

Many other researcher too had an opportunity to present their findings.

Speakers 

Whereas the poster sessions were led primarily by students and early-career researchers covering a diverse array of studies such as infectious diseases, environmental pollution, marine ecology, chemical risk assessment, etc. The sessions served as a valuable platform for building future international networks with many young researchers exchanging ideas on analytical methods and field challenges. 

Poster Presenters

This year's JSPS once again attempted at advancing international collaborative research and strengthening cross-border research networks, either through science communication or a good conversation over a meal. 

CMES will continue to provide opportunities for discussion and collaboration, further reinforcing international and interdisciplinary networks and contributing to sustainable development in South and Southeast Asia.​
