Outline of the event
What is the Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference?
Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference is a place where researchers, large corporations, small factories, and venture companies, regardless of their field or industry, can fuse their knowledge and technology through discussion, identify new research themes and issues that humanity needs to face, and promote research together.
The Covid pandemic is now a thing of the past, and the city of Osaka is buzzing with activity as it prepares to welcome visitors from around the world to the Osaka-Kansai Expo. This year's Osaka convention will be an occasion to welcome more than ever the "unknowns" of the world. The conference will not only bring together unknowns, but also create new unknowns together, making it an even more exciting meeting place than the World Exposition. This is like the "konamon" of Osaka. While incorporating a wide variety of ingredients, the marriage of "Yum! and the event will be a place that embodies the fusion of knowledge that should be spread throughout the world.

University of ToyamaProfessor, International Organization
(Interfaculty Initiative in Medicine and Science and Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Department of Neurobehavioral Biochemistry)
He began his research on the mechanism of biological clock oscillation at the Department of Biochemistry, Graduate School of Science, Osaka University (Institute for Protein Research, Osaka University). After that, he worked on molecular mechanisms of memory formation at the University of Tokyo and the University of Washington (Seattle, USA), and is currently working on the diurnal rhythm regulation of brain functions. Using mainly mice, he is currently investigating whether memory learning efficiency, anxiety and depression-like behavior, and olfactory responses differ depending on the time of day, and if so, what mechanisms regulate them, and their relationship with the biological clock, at both the molecular and individual levels.

Short Pitches by Researchers and Venture Companies "Hyper Interdisciplinary Splash"
The name "Splash" comes from the meaning of the word "splash," which means "a splash of water or other substance." Researchers and venture capitalists give 90-second pitches to the audience, telling them what they want to do and what they are looking for from the participants. The aim is to find passionate researchers and to use their pitches as inspiration to come up with new ideas. We then aim to develop the discussions into more in-depth discussions at the poster presentations, leading to the creation of new collaborative research.
