Professor Emeritus Dr. Yoshinori Yamamoto, Executive Research Coordinator, AIMR, was awarded the Order of the Sacred Treasure by the Government of Japan.

Dr. Yamamoto is recognized as one of the greatest authorities on organic synthetic chemistry and has continuously created novel reactions and produced important concepts in the field. After holding important posts, for example, vice-resident of Tohoku University and vice-president of the Chemical Society of Japan, he became the first director of AIMR (2007-2012) and contributed to the development of materials science and fostering young researchers. We heartily congratulate Dr. Yamamoto on receiving the Order.
