We will have ASHBi Seminar with Dr. Eikan Mishima from Helmholtz Zentrum München, Germany, as a lecturer.

Dr. Eikan Mishima conducted various studies at the Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology and Endocrinology, Tohoku University before coming to Helmholtz Zentrum München, where he elucidated the regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis and published his findings in Nature last year. In this paper, Mishima and his colleagues revealed that the fully reduced form of vitamin K has a strong antiferroptotic function in addition to its conventional function in blood coagulation. In this seminar, Dr. Mishima will discuss the latest findings on the regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis.

If you have any interest in the topic, you are welcome to attend this seminar.
