Hitoshi Tabuchi






Professor, Hiroshima University; Japan





I obtained a doctoral degree and a doctorate in medicine from Osaka City University School of Medicine, and earned EMBA from Nagoya University of Commerce. The award is given twice, the Osaka Mayor Award and the Nagoya University of Commerce Excellent Student Award. The maintenance and development of the universal health insurance system in Japan is my lifework. This is because the biggest advantage of Japanese medical care is that you can get medical care regardless of the difference between rich and poor. The ophthalmic center I founded is now the largest in Japan. Concerning the visual information processing of the brain, which I studied in graduate school, I have continued application research of machine learning for more than 10 years, and at the same time I focused on social implementation of artificial intelligence with dramatic progress by Deep Learning.
