Acceptance comments:

This is my great honor to receive such a prestigious award. I could never receive it without supports of my supervisor, Prof. SUGIYAMA Munetaka (Univ. of Tokyo) who led me to the field of totipotency and Prof. DEMURA Taku (Institute of Science and Technology) who introduced me a new genre of research, water- conducting cell differentiation, and all the research collaborators. And the last but not the least, all the lab members I have been working with. I sincerely would like to thank them all. This award encourages me to put more efforts to my research. I will try my best to contribute to developing plant physiology research.
