Mari Iwaya-Inoue is currently a professor emerita of Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan, since 2017 and is also the auditor of the Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences (JIRCAS), Tsukuba, since 2015. Dr. Iwaya-Inoue has been a professor, Faculty of Agriculture, Kyushu University (2004-2017) and also was appointed as vice dean of the Faculty of Agriculture (2013-2015) and vice president (Student Affairs, Promotion of Gender Equality) of Kyushu University (2014-2017). She is a regular contributor to the Japanese Society of Cryobiology and Cryotechnology and the Japanese Society of Crop Science, and she has been a member of the Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists and the Botanical Society of Japan, among others. Her research interest is plant-water relations, especially the effects of environmental stresses on physical states of water and nutrient accumulation mechanisms in crop seeds.

Minoru Sakurai has been a professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Center for Biological Resources and Informatics) since 2003. Dr. Sakurai is a regular contributor to the Japanese Society of Cryobiology and Cryotechnology and is a member of the Biophysical Society of Japan, the Protein Science Society of Japan, the Chemical Society of Japan, and the American Chemical Society. His current research interests are experimental and theoretical elucidation of the mechanism of anhydrobiosis (life without water), and atomic-level elucidation of the functional mechanisms of ABC transporters based on first-principles computer simulations.


Matsuo Uemura is currently a professor in the Department of Plant-Biosciences, Iwate University (Morioka, Japan). Dr. Uemura has been a vice president (International Liaison and Public Relations) of Iwate University since 2014 as well as visiting professor in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan (Saskatoon, Canada) since 2012. He is a member of the Japanese Society of Cryobiology and Cryotechnology, the Society for Cryobiology, the Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists, the Botanical Society of Japan, and the American Society of Plant Biologists, among other organizations. His research interests include membrane participation in plant cold acclimation and freezing injury and the molecular and physiological aspects of adaptation processes to low temperatures in plants.
