4 Dear Colleagues and Friends

It is my great pleasure to welcome guests from all over the world to the 5th Annual Tsukuba Global Science Week (TGSW2014). Last year, a variety of study fields including not only natural and social sciences, but Arts and sports sciences, participated in the TGSW2013 to celebrate the 40th + 101st anniversary of University of Tsukuba. This year, all of our ten faculties participate in the TGSW2014 as an official university-wide event to tighten international networks and to enhance interdisciplinary collaborations. University of Tsukuba was established in 1973, evolving from our predecessor, the Tokyo University of Education, whose establishment dates back to 1872. During 41 years of the history of University of Tsukuba, we have produced not only multiple Nobel Laureates but also 61 medals in Olympic games. Ultimate achievements in both academic and sport activities stem from a legacy of our founding president, Jigoro Kano, the father of Judo, who highly valued the combination of sound ‘body and mind.’ To advance this tradition and to evolve further in innovative research and education, we decided to create a new and unique program, “Campus-in-Campus.” Bilateral top-level agreements between our partner universities and us enable our students to attend classes in our partner universities and vice versa. Students and researchers at each university can travel to and work at a partner university under the supervision of a partner professor most efficiently. This new program will surely strengthen the bond among partner universities. Today, the human beings face numerous global issues such as food crisis, energy issues, environmental risks, never-ending wars, and poverty. To address these critical issues, we need to collaborate internationally as well as in an interdisciplinary manner, by bringing together the fields of public health, medical science, biological science, sports science, food science, information science, politics, economics, humanities, arts, and more. TGSW2014 is an excellent opportunity for international and interdisciplinary discussion, sharing cutting- edge research and creative activities. Lastly, I would like to thank all of you for your participation and sincerely hope that you will enjoy this invaluable three-day event. I look forward to meeting with each of you during the week to tighten our friendship.

Kyosuke Nagata President University of Tsukuba

5 Dear All Participants,

I would like to extend my warmest welcome to all delegates attending Tsukuba Global Science Week (TGSW) 2014. The University of Tsukuba will celebrate its 41th anniversary this week. We continue to spearhead internationalization of Japanese higher education and bridge different research areas. It would be my distinct pleasure if TGSW2014 can provide an opportunity for all participants to expand their research activities and strengthen their international networks. Interdisciplinary research is known to be one of the powerful approaches towards new discoveries. It propels us to fearlessly confront challenges against the global issues such as aging of population, energy shortage and environmental destruction. TGSW2014 covers a wide range of fields including public health, medical science, sports science, food science, information science, politics and economics, humanities, arts, and more. Each participant is very welcome to join the sessions of totally different fields. I believe that such mixture of participants provides the opportunity to learn from different perspectives. This year, we expect students, researchers, professors, and administrators coming from all over the world. Guests come from Bahrain, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, France, Germany, Greek, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Morocco, Myanmar, Nepal, Netherlands, Russia, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, United Kingdom, United States, Viet Nam, and of course Japan. With our university slogan, “Imagine the Future.”, in mind, we would like to discuss the concrete steps toward resolving global issues and creating a better world for all. I would like to thank all of you for coming and hope that you will enjoy the conference. I hope you will find a hint for improving the world in this forum where people from different academic fields, and backgrounds have come together to discuss cutting-edge ideas.

Kyosuke Nagata

President, University of Tsukuba

The University of Tsukuba has a 40 year history of innovation. All major domestic league tables point to the fact that we are one of the top research-oriented universities in Japan. We count among our graduates and faculty members three Nobel Laureates, seventy Olympic medalists, countless educators, researchers, athletes and artists who have helped make Japan what it is today. As you can see, we have a vast and beautifully conceived campus not found anywhere else in Japan. We occupy a strategically advantageous position in the heart of Tsukuba Science City, which hosts over 300 research institutions with researchers from all over the world engaged in cutting edge research. Thus, we have a number of unique features that can be used to good effect to successfully collaborate with world-class universities. How can we contribute to building a next generation earth? To fully explore our potential in the global arena, we shall invest substantial human and financial resources over the next decade in international exchange and collaboration. A range of new ideas are now being materialized. The most exciting of all is what we call the CAMPUS-in-CAMPUS project – an ambitious project whereby we seek to create a series of miniature off-shore campuses in our partner institutions, and to invite our overseas partners to establish their miniature off-shore campuses in Tsukuba. Once the CAMPUS-in-CAMPUS scheme is in place, our and your students, together with students of our closest allies, will be able to study together physically as well as on-line. You, students, can find and take classes held in not only your campus but also in the campuses of your partners. This is also the case for researchers and university staff members. You, researchers, may carry out experiments in your partner campuses. All these schemes cannot be done without the help of our partner institutions. TGSW is a good chance not only as a great showcase of our individual and collective scientific achievements, but also for incubation of our ties with partner institutions in and outside Japan.

10 Translational Research and Precision Cancer Therapy in Taiwan

Pan-Chyr Yang MD, PhD

President, National Taiwan University Professor, College of Medicine

Clinical trials are critical for translating scientific discoveries from the laboratory into useful products for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. The National Science Council funded the National Research Program for Biopharmaceuticals (NRPB) since 2011 to promote the translational and clinical research in Taiwan, including the establishment of Taiwan national bio-specimen banks and clinical trial consortiums. The NRPB disease- specific national bio-specimen banks facilitate multi-center, high quality, bio-specimen deposit and retrieval, with patients’ complete clinical and epidemiological data and bio-informatics to promote translational research. The NRPB Taiwan Clinical Trial Consortiums consist of lung cancer, liver cancer/diseases, Helicobacter pylori and GI malignencies, oncology phase - I consortium, breast cancer, gynecological cancers, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, lipid and atherosclerosis, pediatric infectious diseases and mental disorder consortiums. We established central IRB to facilitate the review process are participating in many global new drug clinical trials of major international pharmaceutical companies as their preferred partners. We also take leadership in international clinical trials as chairmen or advisory board members of the studies for the sponsors or to perform first-in-human phase - I new drug clinical trials. NRPB is building up the translational research and clinical infrastructures in Taiwan and establish Taiwan as a center of excellence for clinical research and clinical trial in Asia-Pacific. To implement the precision therapy for cancer patients, we have established a national reference laboratory to provide high quality and standardized gene testing for all lung cancer patients. The clinicians could treat the patients based on the genetic alterations to select the most effective therapy; including the EGFR (50%, response to Gefitnib, Erlotinib, Afatinib), EML4-ALK (3-5%, Crizotinib), KRAS (5%, Sorafenib, chemotherapy), MET (3-5%, ARQ- 197, others), BRAF(3%, Sorafenib, others), ERBB2 (3%, Afatinib or Trastuzumab), etc.. Our National Health Insurance reimbursed the Gefitnib and Erlotinib as first line therapy for EGFR mutant lung cancer patients since 2011. The Genetic Epidemiology of Lung Cancer in Taiwan (GELAC) collaborated with NIH and identified 5 specific susceptibility lociTERT ( , TP63, HLA Classs II, POS1-DCBLD1 and VTI1A) in never-smoking women in Asia. The risk genetic loci may be useful to identify high-risk group of patients who can benefit from low dose CT for early detection of lung cancer. We also develop new strategy to overcome drug resistance and targeting cancer stem cells. With the implementation of nation-wide gene testing and precision therapy, the overall 5-year survival for NSCLC has been improved from 15.8% to 31.6% from 2009 to 2013.

11 The 2014 Launch of the University of Bordeaux

Vincent Dousset

Vice-President, University of Bordeaux – International Affairs Professor of Medical Imaging, University of Bordeaux & University Hospital of Bordeaux

Following national reforms and incentives for creating ten major international universities in France (2008), several universities of Bordeaux has decided to merge and to launch in 2014 the University of Bordeaux. Historically, the first University of Bordeaux has been created in 1441 by the bishop Pey Berland. Over time, the University has been divided up in several ones or in independent faculties behind political issues like in 1968 to lower the role of students obstructing the national policies. The fragmentation led to three major drawbacks: 1) a reduction in the capability to create bridges between disciplines, which are recognized as having a positive impact in student education and creativity; 2) a difficulty to manage the research activities at a sufficient scale and to support financially and materially research of high quality; 3) to appear on the international scenery by the quality of diplomas, the excellence of research and in the numerous rankings. The presentation will focus on the steps that brought to the new University of Bordeaux, the new organization chart, the ambitions in education and research, the process of recognition that made the University of Bordeaux laureate of the French national award “initiative of excellence” and the new management of international affairs which is at the heart of its political issues.

12 Leveraging Global Partnerships in the Face of an Uncertain Future

Jacob E. Levin, PhD

Office of Research, University of California, Irvine

The problems that plague modern society and the questions that arouse human curiosity are universal – largely independent of our country of origin or what language we speak. It stands to reason that insight into these fundamental mysteries, and solutions to these complex and challenging problems, will come through the joint efforts of a diverse and global team – of scientists and engineers, physicians and humanists, artists and educators, and with the involvement of universities, government, private organizations and industry. For the largest and most intractable of these problems, people, resources and funding will need to be mobilized from across the world, tools employed from all fields and sectors. Especially in these financially uncertain times, multi-pronged interdisciplinary international partnerships must be forged, strengthened, and managed, using all the capabilities at our disposal, in order to effectively synthesize and leverage our unique individual strengths and capabilities. Broadly representative cross-sector partnerships are being formed to address everything from the greening of college campuses to the development of new drugs and medical therapies to preparing our athletes for the Olympics. Modern technologies and communication tools are aiding the formation of these international collaborations, as is an ever-increasing viewpoint of global engagement, and responsibility for creating a sustainable future, being adopted by Universities, research funding agencies and the government. A few examples of these partnerships will be discussed, in the context of the multi-national multi-disciplinary collaborative environment that is Tsukuba Global Science Week itself.

13 The Progress of Japanese Studies with Particular Reference to the UK and Australia

Serious study of Japan, and teaching about Japan, scarcely existed at university level in the UK and Australia before the end of the Second World War. One estimate puts the number of Australians fluent in Japanese in the 1930s at seven. There were a few exceptions (a Japanese Studies Fellow at the University of Oxford around 1910, a Japanese Studies Professor at the University of Sydney for some years after the First World War), but it was not until military- run Japanese language courses in the early 1940s produced numbers of fluent Japanese speak- ers that some universities began to regard Japan as a possible area for study. But not until the Japanese ‘economic miracle’ began to attract international attention in the 1960s did Japanese studies really come into its own. This continued into the late 1980s and beyond, with some universities in both the UK and Australia reporting an ‘enrolment tsunami’ in courses re- lating to Japan (including language courses). In Australia in particular, Japanese became a major language taught in schools as well. With the Japanese economy stagnant in the 1990s, what had been over-expansion was corrected by retrenchment, but from the new millennium Japanese studies had become consolidated and achieved both quality and depth. Even though Chinese studies have by some measures overtaken those of Japan, both the UK and Australia contribute extensively to research and teaching on many aspects of Japan, both historical and contemporary, and in an increasing range of disciplines, principally but not exclusively in the humanities and the social sciences.

Caroline F. Benton

University of Tsukuba Vice President, Global Affairs

Today’s globalized world is characterized by accelerating levels of complexity, interdependency and change. Twenty, thirty years from now will look nothing like today. New types of jobs will replace current ones and new manners of interaction among people across organizations and national borders will emerge. Issues such as resource scarcity, continued deterioration of the environment, and regional conflict will have even wider ranging consequences with greater global impact, and will require transborder collaboration to resolve. Such a future requires efforts from not only a limited number of global leaders, but also from persons in all areas of society who can work across cultures and have the ability and competency to flexibly navigate a continuously evolving world. As educators of young people and custodians of the present state of academia, it is our responsibility to ensure that our youth are equipped to handle the coming future. To this end, we must rethink not only what we teach and research, but also why and how we do so. With ever-increasing change and complexity, it is not enough to transfer knowledge from a single static field of knowledge or discipline. We must nurture our students to be leaders of change with the competence to look past status quos, to recognize the connections among the various issues and stakeholders of society, and to negotiate across diverse value sets and paradigms. This talk will address the emerging challenges that the future generation will face and the competencies they will need, and how our university will help prepare them through continuous innovation in education, research and university governance. By spearheading reform in higher education, we aim to transform our university into a truly transborder institution.

20 Beyond the Student Exchange: NTU Plus Academy

With the promise of diverse academic opportunities, awareness of cultural differences, and personality development, international student mobility has become a popular and important trend amongst higher education institutions. From the development of student exchange programs, many institutions are constantly looking for more dynamic ways to attract international students to their campus. In this talk, National Taiwan University will share the insights into and experiences of spinning or adding on to the standard exchange program to accommodate different student needs. The talk will focus on how NTU expands its international opportunities on campus by developing a series of Summer+ programs, Spring+ programs, and customized programs for partner universities. The University is now moving forward to integrate these successful tailor-made programs in a new concept “NTU Plus Academy” to cater to diverse needs of international students at NTU.

21 Automated Driving: Where Are We Headed?

Today’s machine can sense and analyze a situation, decide what must be done, and implement control actions. Such smart machines can be seen at many places in our society. Aircraft have been highly automated for more than two decades. Although human pilots have to take care of the takeoff phase for several minutes, the rest of the flight phases from the initial climb to the final approach and landing can be dealt with by the computers for around 10 hours in cases of international flights. Now autonomous cars have become part of everyday conversation. People make up their own mental models of the autonomous cars. Some may expect that they would be freed from stressful driving tasks and that they can enjoy using smartphones on their whole way to the destination. Some others may assume that autonomous cars should be accident-free, because human errors can never happen. However, it is not clear what type of automated driving we should implement. Several levels can be distinguished for automated driving: (1) Driver assisted, (2) partial automation, (3) conditional automation, (4) high automation, and (5) full automation. Human driver’s role differs from level to level. For instance, in some of these levels, control authority is traded from automation to the human driver based on the automation’s decision. It is well known that automation sometimes bring negative effects, such as the out-of-the-loop performance problem, loss of situation awareness, complacency or overtrust, automation surprises. Can the human driver cope with the trading of authority appropriately when he or she has not monitored the driving environment? What kind of advantages can the driver have, if we ask him or her to monitor the driving environment all the time? Can automated driving be realized under the Convention of Road Traffic that states that “Every driver of a vehicle shall in all circumstances have his vehicle under control so as to be able to exercise due and proper care and to be at all times in a position to perform all maneuvers required of him”? There are still many issues to be solved technologically as well as legally.

Live donor transplants are carried out both for livers and lungs, where a lobe of these organs from a donor is transplanted to the patient. Since 2010, a handful of live donor liver exchanges have been conducted in South Korea and Hong Kong. In addition to blood-type compatibility, size-compatibility is also essential for a successful transplant for both organs. Furthermore, live donor lung transplanta-tion requires two donors for each patient where each donor donates a lung lobe to the patient. Live donor lung exchange is proposed as a new lung transplan-tation modality. Models of liver exchange and lung exchange are introduced and analyzed. Welfare gains of these organ exchanges will be simulated.

To overcome severe donor shortage, maximizing organs transplanted per brain death donor and expanded the donor pool using living donors are mandatory. Successful uses of marginal lungs with ex-vivo lung re-conditioning contribute to increase the number of available lung graft. Utilization of adult living donor middle-lobe can save critically ill small children and infant who otherwise cannot survive size-matched brain-dead donor organs. Overall, the strategies Japan has adopted to overcome donor shortage can provide useful insights on how to increase organ transplantations.

Live-donor kidney exchanges have become commonplace in many countries within the last decade. We give a summary of what has been done, referring to our and others’ earlier work, and what still needs to be addressed for achieving higher gains from kidney exchange from an economic organization point of view. We show that incentivizing compatible pairs to participate in an ethically acceptable manner will help more incompatible pairs in exchange, and can lead to the creation of a single large clearinghouse instead of multiple small ones which will in turn help highly sensitized patients.

Live-donor liver exchange has been a relatively new modality in organ transplantation and some exchanges have been conducted primarily in South Korea. Different from kidneys, it requires strict size compatibility considerations and tissue incompatibility does not play a major role. In this paper we explore the structure of optimal liver-exchanges and show that although the friction caused by size incompatibility decreases direct donations, through utilization of exchanges it caqn increase the total number of transplants.

30 Liver transplantation for liver cancer in Japan - Differences between adults and children -

Liver transplantation (LT) is the only acceptable therapeutic arm for cancer therapy in solid organ transplantation. In adults, LT is used for relatively early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This criteria of LT for HCC has been named as Milan Criteria by Mazzaferro et al. MC means a single nodule smaller than 5cm in diameter or multiple nodules fewer than three and smaller than 3cm in diameter each. As long as met Milan Criteria, four year survival of LT for HCC was 75%, just same as those of LT for chronic hepatic failure without HCC. LT for HCC occupied 20.5% (1131/5510 cases) in Japanese LT registry 2007 and 24.5% in our institute. But multi-armed intensive pretreatment including hepatectomy, ablation and chemoembolization is able to make over Milan HCCs into met Milan HCCs. Such down staging pretreatment is called “intention to treat”, and will increase met Milan population. In children, histo-pathological subtype of liver cancer is hepatoblastoma (HBT), and quite different from that of adult. Therefore, clinic-pathological nature and LT indication of HBT are not same as adult liver cancer (HCC). Indication of LT for HBT is unresectable advanced tumor in Stage III or IV. Even HBT with distant metastasis, LT is acceptable when metastatic nodule are surgically removed or not viable by intensive chemotherapy. In such advanced HBT, primary LT has better survival than that of rescue LT after in compete hepatectomy. I herein presents these 2 types of LC in Japan and our institute.

31 Present status of organ transplantation in Japan

Japan is a developed country in many medical field. But, only in organ transplantation, Japan is a developing country. Many Japanese transplant surgeons had training in the United States and Europe. Many basic science articles on transplantation were described by Japanese. More than 80% recipients after organ transplantation had the immunosuppressive drug developed in Tsukuba, Japan. Japan has a leadership in organ transplantation in the world. After the organ transplantation law was established in 1997, the number of brain death donors was limited, because the written consent of the donor was necessary. So many patients who needed organ transplantation went abroad. In 2008, the Declaration of Istanbul by the international transplantation society and WHO stated organs for transplantation should be equitably allocated within own countries. Many Japanese patients became unable to go abroad for organ transplantation. In 2009, the law was revised, and the written consent was unnecessary. But the numbers of deceased donors were remained about 110 per year. Surprisingly, in 2013, the number of deceased donor was decreased to 84. In these circumstances, in Japan, the special fields in living organ transplantation were developed. These are ABO blood group incompatible organ transplantation and living liver transplantation. The organ transplantation between ABO blood incompatible pair was contra-indication 20 years ago. But now it’s about 27% in living renal transplantation in Japan. Using strong immunosuppressive drugs, after removal of ABO group antibody by plasma exchange, we can perform it easily and safely. For living liver transplantation, the high technic for donor liver operation is necessary. Of course, Japanese transplant surgeon can perform it safely. Both are not so popular in the other countries except for Japan, because the numbers of deceased donors were enough. I report these special situation of Japan in organ transplantation.
