Forum Overview

Known as the "kitchen of the nation," Osaka has long been a bustling center of distribution and commerce, where products and daily commodities gathered from all over Japan. As merchants from various cultural backgrounds came and went, they must have exchanged their different ways of thinking and information from various regions. The mixture of these elements has fostered a new culture. This nature has been carried over to the present day, and new discoveries are being made every day through the fusion of research results from world-class research institutes and universities, and technologies developed by leading Japanese companies. This year's Osaka Forum will focus on "medicine," a field in which the Kansai region excels, and "food" and "housing," areas of unique culture, and all participants will discuss and create a blueprint for the future that can be called "omoroi" (omoroi means "good" in Japanese).

keynote speech
The future of medicine as envisioned by iPS cells."

RIKEN Center for Frontier Biosciences
Project Leader, Retinal Regenerative Medicine R&D Project
Masayo Takahashi

iPS cells" became widely known after winning the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2012. Currently, its research has developed to the point where clinical trials are being conducted around the world with a view to human application. In this forum, Dr. Masayo Takahashi, who aims to establish treatments for retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa from the viewpoint of regenerative medicine using iPS cells, will talk about the current status and future of regenerative medicine, including treatments for eye diseases based on regenerative medicine using iPS cells.

Corporate Educational Activities Create the Future of the Community - The Secret to Involving the Entire Company
Session Partner: Oriental Motor Co.

Without business, a region will decline. The act of conducting business by local companies undeniably contributes to the creation of the future of the region and the world. However, this alone is not enough to continue creating the future. It is necessary to gather future colleagues on one's own. And whether or not you can gather people depends on whether or not there is something exciting there and whether or not the people there are excited. How many people can boast about their work to their children? How many people can envision the world they want to achieve through their work? Together with companies that are engaged in activities to communicate their business in front of local children, we will discuss the significance of standing in front of children and how this can be put into practice.

Super interdisciplinary pitch by researchers
technology splash
Session Partner: Duskin Corporation

Splash means "to jump or splash (water, etc.), to fall with a zap. In this session, researchers who are presenters will share the most passionate aspects of their research with the participants, transcending the boundaries of their fields and affiliations. The participants (audience), on the other hand, are plunged into the world of different fields, bathed in the knowledge and enthusiasm of the researchers who appear one after the other. In a series of short presentations in very different fields, the enthusiasm of the presenters and the enthusiasm of the participants collide, and new research ideas and friends are born as if by splashing. That is what "Technology Splash" is all about.

From Ikuno Ward, think about shoes for the future.
Session Partner: Rohto Pharmaceutical Co.

We humans, who walk on two legs, have been wearing footwear to protect our own feet since as far back as BC. Even in Japan, where a unique footwear culture of geta, sandals, and zori was nurtured, Western-style footwear has become widespread since World War II. While the shoe culture is rich in functionality and fashion, the confinement of the feet in shoes has also caused adverse effects, such as the loss of foot health. By redefining the existence of "shoes," which can be said to be the origin of mankind, and adding new knowledge along with cutting-edge research, the future of "shoes" may change. In this session, we will discuss the future of "shoes" with researchers who focus on the effects of barefoot, doctors who provide comprehensive treatment for foot diseases, and shoe craftsmen from Ikuno Ward, Osaka City, who are professionals in shoe-making.

Nudging familiar issues - from coercion to spontaneous decision-making
Session Partner: Kansai Electric Power Co.

A nudge is a strategy, based on scientific analysis, that encourages, rather than enforces, unconsciously voluntary human behavior. For example, you may have seen a stairway in town that displays the number of calories burned per climb. This nudge reminds people that exercise is good for their health and motivates them to take the stairs instead of the escalator, while at the same time easing escalator congestion. Although its use is still in its infancy, it is expected to be utilized in all aspects of private and professional life. In this session, we will discuss new ways of dealing with issues around us based on case studies in academia and government.

Residential Space for Health - New Relationship between Sanitary Environment and People
Session Partner: Hakuzo Medical, Inc.

Keeping living spaces clean is closely related to "health," as it eliminates the causes of infectious diseases such as influenza and norovirus, as well as allergens such as house dust and pollen. In recent years, with the development of technologies for measuring various health indicators and comprehensive analysis, there has been a growing movement toward a healthy society through various approaches. By utilizing these technologies, it may be possible to create "healthier rooms". In this session, we will discuss the science of "hygiene" and "health" and the realization of healthy living spaces.
