We have received a large number of lecture invitations to Dr. Shinya Yamanaka. We are greatly honored that he was chosen as a speaker. 

However, it is difficult for him to accept new requests of lectures to be held before October 2015 because he would like to concentrate on his research and is occupied with many official duties for the time being.

Those who would like to invite Dr. Shinya Yamanaka to speak at an event that will be held between October 1, 2015, and March 31, 2016, are requested to fill out and submit the Lecture Request Form below by July 31, 2014.

(*The Lecture Request Form was closed on August 1, 2014)

The CiRA Scheduling Management Committee will select events in which Dr. Yamanaka will participate and send applicants an acceptance/declination notice between September 1 and 30, 2014.

If your event will be held on April 1, 2016, or later, please do not apply this time. 

We will announce the next period of request acceptance on this website in January 2015.

If you would like to invite other CiRA researchers to your events, please send email to invitation*cira.kyoto-u.ac.jp.  (Please change * to @)
