This marks Associate Professor Takayama's second time receiving the Chairman's Award, having previously won it in 2018 for her lecture entitled "Attempts at Molecular Genetic Analysis of Oil-Producing Yeast."

The Yeast Genetics Forum is a rare academic society with a culture of lively discussion regardless of title, and attracts yeast researchers from a wide range of fields who, while based on yeast genetics, also incorporate elements of data science. Among these, the development of applied research based on basic yeast research was highly praised, leading to this award.
We will continue to build on our basic research into yeast and advance research that can benefit society.
