About this symposium
This symposium focuses on cumulative progress in biophysics of rhodopsins and the relating research fields. Prof. Yoshinori Sichida retired from Kyoto University on March 2017, who is a pioneer of the rhodopsin field. The symposium will be a good opportunity for exchanging knowledges of the recent advances in or close to the rhodopsin field. This symposium is partly supported by The Kyoto University Foundation, AZBIO CORP, Bruker Optics K.K., Nakayama Corporation, Ltd., SHIMIZU Laboratory Supplies Co., Ltd., Travel Lab. Partners, UNISOKU Co., Ltd., and WAKENYAKU CO., LTD.
