コメント

 I am very honored to have been selected for the Young Researcher Encouragement Award at the 17th Japanese Society of Clinical Stress Response Conference. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the judges who evaluated this presentation, as well as to everyone involved in the academic society.

 This presentation shows that TRIM24 and TRIM33, a ubiquitin ligase family protein that is activated in response to environmental, physiological, and pathological stimuli and undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation during transcriptional activation and co-localize with HSF1. I believe that this research will lead to the elucidation of the rapid transcriptional activation mechanism not only by HSF1 but also by co-activators that respond to external signals.

 Lastly, the research for which I received the Young Researcher Encouragement Award is the result of the guidance and cooperation of everyone in the laboratory, including Professor Akira Nakai and Dr. Mitsuaki Fujimoto. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you. With this award as encouragement, I will continue to push forward with my research activities.
