Dr. Sekiya studied microbiology and immunology as a Ph.D. student at Professor Jackson\u2019s laboratory in the UM, and he has also taken an important role as a bridge between the two universities in research collaborations.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On the first night, the HU delegates were invited to a welcome dinner at Vice-Chancellor Duncan Maskell \u2019s residence. The following day, they attended site visits and had meetings with researchers in the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity: a collaborator of the IIZC. They also visited the Bio21 Institute, Melbourne Connect, the Melbourne Centre for Cities, Melbourne Climate Futures, and the Faculties of Science, Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences. During the session on an overview of the progress of research collaborations, Professor Kida gave a presentation on the history of our collaborations and the establishment of, and future plan for, the new research entity, the Institute for Vaccine Research and Development (IVReD) of HU. Professor Kida and Dr. Sekiya had a meaningful time discussing with Professor Kedzierska and researchers in her laboratory regarding plans for vaccine development. Professors Jackson and Brown, and Dr. Chua in the UM who are GI-CoRE affiliated researchers in the International Collaboration Unit of the IIZC, joined the discussion to give advice and support on the new project. It is expected that this visit will lead us to further research development and a deepened relationship between the two Universities.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/7d6fddc4d5f4457e598413974089fe73.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"644\" height=\"387\" \/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/1efad1b5aa917a846fa5b3fc11367269.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"644\" height=\"323\" \/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-0 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-2 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"553\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/29d3bc99193cb0b837fb8cc53f050ae5.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3526\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/29d3bc99193cb0b837fb8cc53f050ae5.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/events\/hokkaido-university-delegates-visit-to-the-university-of-melbourne.html\/attachment\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f1-4\" class=\"wp-image-3526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/29d3bc99193cb0b837fb8cc53f050ae5.jpg 553w, https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/29d3bc99193cb0b837fb8cc53f050ae5-290x300.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 553px) 100vw, 553px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"573\" height=\"553\" src=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5e4896966c9944fcf00890f4502605bf.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3529\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5e4896966c9944fcf00890f4502605bf.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/events\/hokkaido-university-delegates-visit-to-the-university-of-melbourne.html\/attachment\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f3\" class=\"wp-image-3529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5e4896966c9944fcf00890f4502605bf.jpg 573w, https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5e4896966c9944fcf00890f4502605bf-300x290.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 573px) 100vw, 573px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the Virtual Conference on Healthy Ageing held in March, the University of Melbourne (UM) visit to Ho [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2,6],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3490"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3490"}],"version-history":[{"count":63,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3490\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3523,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3490\/revisions\/3523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3490"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3490"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c-mng.cwh.hokudai.ac.jp\/gicore-icu.czc\/Root\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3490"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
