Yutaka Hitomi 21st International Conference on Biological Inorganic Chemistry 2025

Yutaka Hitomi

Yutaka Hitomi studied synthetic organic chemistry and coordination chemistry at Kyoto University (Ph.D. 1999) in the labs of late Prof. Yoshihiko Itoh, Prof. Hisanobu Ogoshi and later Prof. Susumu Kitagawa. Then, He spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Thomas V. O’Halloran to learn chemical biology. In 2001, he joined the catalyst lab of Prof. Takuzo Funabiki and Prof. Tsunehiro Tanaka at Kyoto University as an assistant professor. In 2008, he moved to his current university. His research interest is the development of useful oxidation catalysts and molecular tools based on bioinspired metal complexes.
