About the editors
Masakazu Umezawa received his M.Pharm. (2008) and Ph.D. (2010) degrees under the supervision of Prof. Ken Takeda in Pharmaceutical Sciences from Tokyo University of Science. He worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow, Assistant Professor, and Junior Associate Professor until 2016 and then joined the Department of Materials Science and Technology, Tokyo University of Science, as a Project Research Associate to promote the research on “deeper and precise fluorescence bioimaging through the second biological window (SBW)” supervised by Prof. Kohei Soga. His research interests are “nano-bio” interactions for the designing of safer and functionalized nanomaterials and their biomedical applications.
Kyohei Okubo received his M.E. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Tsukuba, Japan, in 2014 and 2017, respectively. From 2017 to 2018, he has worked in the University of Tokyo as Japanese Society of Promotion and Science (JSPS) Postdoctoral Researcher. In 2018, he joined the Department of Materials Science and Technology, Tokyo University of Science, as an Assistant Professor. He is currently involved in the development of near-infrared bioimaging and biomedical devices.
