Morning Session First Half Basic Research Presentations
In the first half of the session, the Symbiosis Research Institute, which is exclusively affiliated with the Research Group, presented basic research on intestinal bacteria, reported on their experiments, and reported on the establishment of a donor bank.
Evolution of Life and Intestinal Flora Transplantation
Dr. Makoto Shimizu, Senior Researcher at Symbiosis Research Institute, talked about the history of the symbiosis between bacteria and humans along the evolutionary path of life. He also introduced papers from around the world on intestinal flora transplantation, which is being studied at a rapid pace around the world, and discussed the “search for the optimal solution.
Finally, we also informed everyone of the details of the pending patent application that has now been published internationally, along with our commitment to the transplantation bacteria solution.
A true craftsman, he was a funny and serious top-billed performer.

Morning Session Second Half Case Presentations
The following case presentations were given by clinicians who have participated in the Intestinal Flora Transplantation Clinical Study Group and are already applying intestinal flora transplantation in their clinical practice throughout Japan.
THREE CASES OF IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME THAT SHOWED IMPROVEMENT WITH UB-FMT
Dr. Yuichi Kawai, from the Medical Corporation Yuakai Cute Internal Medicine Clinic, presented a case in which a patient suffering from irritable bowel syndrome was improved by intestinal flora transplantation.
The stools and frequency of bowel movements were clearly improved, and the patient’s experience was also very positive.

A case of atopic dermatitis showing improvement 4 months after intestinal flora transplantation
Dr. Masahiko Johya, Luke’s Ashiya Clinic, treats patients not only from a gastrointestinal perspective but also from a psychological one.
In this context, he shared his experience of a valuable case in atopic dermatitis.
How is gut flora transplantation different from other symptomatic therapies? How are skin conditions linked to gut conditions?
It was very thought provoking.

Autism Treatment Experience
The last speaker was Dr. Kunihiro Kitamura of Kitamura Clinic, Kiwakai Medical Corporation, who presented a case study of a child with autism.
For a doctor who specializes in gastroenterology, surgery, and cancer treatment, the autistic girl’s stool condition, followed by her behavior improvement, was very memorable.
Borrowing a phrase from the girl’s mother, the doctor spoke each word carefully, making us, the listeners, think of the atmosphere in the clinic room.
The contents of this announcement will not be disclosed.
Luncheon Seminar “Intestinal Bacteria and Modern Medical Food Science
During the delicious lunch time, a luncheon seminar was held by Dr. Masayasu Inoue, Professor Emeritus of Osaka City University.
He gave an easy-to-understand lecture from the perspectives of evolutionary history since the Cambrian period, intestinal flora and nutrition.
Afternoon Session First Half Keynote Speech
Vaccine and Adjuvant Research Center
Director, Dr. Jun Kunisawa
In the afternoon session, we invited Dr. Jun Kunisawa, a world-renowned specialist in the study of intestinal microflora, to deliver a keynote lecture.
First of all, he explained very clearly how intestines and immunity are closely related.
He then shared with us his latest research on regional differences in intestinal flora and changes in blood data due to oil intake.
THE MOST SURPRISING AND IMPRESSIVE CONTENT WAS THE RESEARCH CONTENT OF STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF INTESTINAL FLORA IN HEALTHY PEOPLE BY AI.
The day may soon come when his research will benefit our health.
Afternoon Session Late Panel Discussion
Based on the keynote speech, a panel discussion was held with Dr. Jun Kunisawa and professors who are members of our study group.
The theme was “How to Eat in a Way that Pleases Intestinal Bacteria,” and the exchange of opinions from the standpoints of researchers, clinicians, and dietitians, as well as many questions from the participants, reaffirmed that this is a topic of great interest.
Details of this announcement are available in this article.
Thanks to the many people who came to the event, it was a great success!
Thank you very much for coming.
We look forward to seeing you again next year.
