主講人簡介：

森和俊（Kazutoshi Mori），日本京都大學生物物理學教授。1981年畢業(yè)于京都大學醫(yī)藥科學系獲學士學位，1987年獲該校博士學位。1985-1989年在岐阜藥科大學任講師；1989-1993年，在美國德克薩斯州大學西南醫(yī)學中心任博士后研究員；1993-1999年為京都熱休克蛋白研究院主任研究員；1999年起至今在京都大學任生物物理學系教授。

未折疊蛋白響應(yīng)（Unfolded Protein Response, UPR）是真核細胞中內(nèi)質(zhì)網(wǎng)穩(wěn)態(tài)維持和蛋白質(zhì)質(zhì)量控制的關(guān)鍵機制。森和俊教授是未折疊蛋白響應(yīng)領(lǐng)域的奠基人之一，獲得了眾多的國際著名獎項，包括拉斯克基礎(chǔ)醫(yī)學獎（Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award，2014）、科學突破獎（Breakthrough Prize，2018）、蓋爾德納獎（Gairdner Award，2009）、邵逸夫獎（Shaw Prize，2014）、湯森路透引文桂冠獎 (Thomson Reuters Citation Laureate，2015)等。

Brief Introduction of Professor Kazutoshi Mori

Dr. Kazutoshi Mori is a professor in the Department of Biophysics at Kyoto University, Japan. He received his Bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Kyoto University in 1981 and his Ph.D. degree from the Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Kyoto University in 1987. He served as an Instructor at Gifu Pharmaceutical University, and then did his postdoctoral research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center from 1989 to 1993. After working as a Research Manager at the HSP Research Institute of Kyoto from 1993 to 1999, he joined the Department of Biophysics of Kyoto University as an Associate Professor in 1999 and has been a Full Professor since 2003.

Professor Kazutoshi Mori is the very pioneer in the field of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), a key mechanism in ER homeostasis maintenance and protein quality control in eukaryotic cells. He thus received numerous international awards, including the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award (2014), the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences (2018), the Canada Gairdner International Award (2009), the Shaw Prize in Life Science and Medicine (2014), and the Thomson Reuters Citation Laureate (2015).
