Teruya Shinjo Ph.D.
Prof. Shinjo served as a chair of the ICMFS International Advisory Committee for three years. He organized ICMFS twice, and the International Symposium on Metallic Multilayers (MML) once. He was also the program chair of the International Symposium on Industrial Applications of the Mössbauer Effect (ISIAME) held in Otsu, Japan, in 1992. Prof. Shinjo served as a member of the organizing committee and the program committee for many conferences. For many years he was an Associate Editor of the Mössbauer Effect Reference and Data Journal. He is a member of editorial board for the Journal of Physics D, Applied Physics and the Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials. Prof. Shinjo was recently elected to be a fellow of the United Kingdom Institute of Physics.Prof. Shinjo served as the Director of the Institute for Chemical Research, Kyoto University, from 1996 to 1998. He also served as a science advisor of the Ministry of Education (Monbusho) from 1992 to 2000. Prof. Shinjo was awarded the Japanese Medal of Honor with Purple Ribbon (Shijuhosho) in November 2000. The Medal of Honor, given by the government of Japan, is bestowed upon individuals who have made outstanding achievements in their respective fields of society; the Medal with Purple Ribbon is awarded to individuals who have contributed to academic and artistic developments, improvements, and accomplishments. He was also awarded prizes by the Magnetics Society of Japan and the Japan Society of Applied Physics. After his retirement at the end of March 2002, he has been Professor Emeritus of Kyoto University, and is a Fellow at the International Institute for Advanced Studies, which is located in the new science town near Nara. At the same time, he serves Osaka University as a guest professor. There, he is joining the research group of Prof. Saburo Nasu and keeping in touch with Mössbauer spectroscopic studies. After his retirement, having more free time, he is enjoying playing tennis and golf frequently. EducationIn 1957, he entered Kyoto University and graduated in 1961. He then entered the graduate course in chemistry and was awarded a doctoral degree in 1966. |
