Director
CO₂ capture research unit
Moonshot for beyond Zero-Emission Society
Professor
International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research(I2CNER)
Director
Research Center for Negative Emissions Technologies (K-NETs) Kyushu University
Dr. Shigenori Fujikawa’s team are currently working on novel technologies to tackle a number of issues related to the environment and energy, such as global warming and associated climate change. Fujikawa Lab is involved in research developing new nano-materials that can take advantage of “ubiquitous” resources such as carbon dioxide and light energy, which both have great potential as a carbon source and energy source.

Dr. John Michael Gonzalez
Associate Professor
Muscle Biology / Meat Science | Department of Animal and Dairy Science, University of Georgia (USA)
Dr. John Michael Gonzalez currently teaches and conducts research at the University of Georgia’s Department of Animal & Dairy Science.
He and his team are involved in several research areas. The first focuses on the cellular influencers of muscle growth and their relation to meat quality. Specifically, the roles muscle fiber size/type and collagen crosslinks elicit on fresh meat color and tenderness. His second research area focuses exploring novel technologies (feed additives, management strategies, breeding strategies) that manipulate gestational, in ovo, or postnatal muscle growth and development. His last area of research focuses on exploring the cellular and biochemical mechanisms responsible for muscle fatigue during transportation of cattle and swine and the development of nutritional countermeasures.
