Greetings from the new Editor-in-Chief
It is my great honor and pleasure to serve as the sixth Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Dermatological Science (JDS), succeeding Professor Akimichi Morita. JDS is the official journal of the Japanese Society for Investigative Dermatology (JSID), which now comprises more than 1350 dermatologists and skin researchers from Japan and other countries. Beginning in 2005, I served as the Secretary-General of JSID under Professor Shinji Shimada, and I worked to organize the International Investigative Dermatology (IID) 2008 held in Kyoto.Greeting from the President of the Japanese Society for Investigative Dermatology (JSID): On achieving internationalization and educating young researchers
I assumed the office of President of the JSID ( http://www.jsid.org/english/index.html ). My term is from May 2008 to December 2011. From 2005, I served as the Secretary-General of the JSID under Professor Shinji Shimada, the former President, and I worked to organize the International Investigative Dermatology 2008 (IID2008). We are happy to have successfully completed the IID2008. I believe that the success of that event contributed to firmly establishing the status of the JSID in the arena of international investigative dermatological science.
