In 1997, to commemorate the centenary of the birth of Hideki Yukawa, he chaired an international symposium at Kyoto University, entitled, "What is Life" The Next 100 Years of Yukawa's Dream?. The proceedings of this symposium appeared as a Progress of Theoretical Physics Supplement No.173, 1-370 (2008). ... He has more recently co- chaired the International & Interdisciplinary Symposium 2010 on "Novel Phenomena in Integrated Complex Sciences: from Non-living to Living Systems" ... and will chair the Kyoto University Forum 2011 on "Toward a Century of New Synthesis", and Hayashibara Forum 2011 on "Integrated Complex System Science: Life, Mind and Environment". He is the author of. "Dynamics of Cellular Motility" (John Wiley, 1992) and is also the author of "Life as History - Construction of Endo-Exo Circulation Theory" (Japanese language, Kyoto University Press, 2000, ISBN: 4-87698-403-4 C1045).
