Ravindra Gupta
Professor of Clinical Microbiology | Expert in Regenerative Immunology Research | Cambridge University x University of Hong Kong Global Health Chair Professor
Professor Ravindra Gupta is an internationally renowned expert in virology and immunology. He currently serves as Professor of Clinical Microbiology at the University of Cambridge and has been appointed as the "Hong Kong Jockey Club Professor of Global Health," leading collaboration between the University of Cambridge and the University of Hong Kong in global health and viral resurgence research.
As a Fulbright scholar, I studied at the Harvard School of Public Health, completed medical doctor training at the University of Cambridge, and specialized in HIV functional cure, viral evolution, T-cell immune reconstruction, and stem cell combination therapy.
One of the achievements he is best known for is leading the world's first patient case of long-term HIV remission through stem cell transplantation, which garnered significant attention in the international medical community and was published in leading medical journals such as Nature and The Lancet. His research directly influenced revisions to the World Health Organization's HIV treatment strategy.
During the period of COVID-19 infection, his research team elucidated the mutations of SARS-CoV-2 and its immune evasion mechanisms, greatly advancing the development of vaccines and antibodies.
Medical Philosophy: 'The mission of medicine is not only to treat, but also to use science to restore the harmony and resilience of the human body systems.'
Takaaki Matsuoka（松岡 孝明）
Clinical Expert in Regenerative Medicine | Founder of the Stem Cell Homing Mechanism Theory
Background summary:
Dr. Akira Matsuoka, one of the pioneers in the field of regenerative medicine in Japan, graduated from the Keio University Medical School in early years and acquired a double doctorate in medicine and philosophy. He first majored in anesthesiology, but later moved the center of gravity to regenerative medicine and cell therapy for a deep study of life repair mechanisms.
He is known for proposing the 'stem cell homing mechanism'—a theory that revealed that stem cells can actively respond to the body's microenvironmental signals, accurately migrate to damaged tissues to repair them, thereby achieving true 'self-regeneration'.
This discovery is considered an important scientific foundation for modern precise regenerative medicine.
The cell research and applied systems led by him have obtained approval from Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare under the 'Regenerative Medicine Act' and 'Category 2 Clinical Implementation,' making it one of the few regenerative medicine platforms in Japan to have passed rigorous supervisory and regulatory reviews.
This platform is equipped with an ISO Class‑5 sterile environment, animal-serum-free culture systems, as well as barcode tracking and multi-virus/bacteria screening mechanisms, ensuring the highest standards of purity, safety, and traceability of stem cell products.
His clinical practice emphasizes that regenerative medicine is not merely a technical procedure, but a medical art that 'restarts the body's self-healing ability' through scientific methods.
That treatment method is widely applied in fields such as anti-aging management, immune balance, functional recovery, and support therapy for chronic diseases.
医学理念：「再生医学の核心は、体を修復するのではなく、体を目覚めさせる知恵である。
細胞は尊重され安全な環境の中でこそ、本当に生命の潜在能力を発揮することができる」と述べた。
Naoyuki Ōtake（大竹 尚之）
Expert in Integrative Nutrition and Regenerative Medicine | Advocate of Micro-Eco Regulation and Functional Restoration
Background summary:
Dr. Naoyuki Otake has a clinical experience for more than 30 years in the medical field, and he graduated from the Department of medicine, Kitasato University in early years, and after a long term, he worked as a medium-term doctor of orthopedic and functional medicine in a university hospital and a major medical institution. He accumulated extensive practice in the repair of skin and soft tissue, microbiological control and reconstruction of physical functions.
In his medical practice, he gradually shifted the focus of his research from 'superficial repair' to 'system optimization,' believing that the key factors affecting body function and the aging process stem not only from tissue loss but also from intrinsic nutritional structures, immune rhythms, and hormonal dynamics.
He specializes in integrating molecular nutritional medicine, gut microecology management, and endocrine regulation to create personalized cooking and recovery plans, helping clients restore their rhythm from subhealth conditions such as chronic fatigue, immune disorders, hormonal imbalances, and emotional dysregulation, and enhance overall functioning.
At the same time, he provides private health consulting services to many entrepreneurs and cultural figures, emphasizing long-term trust in medical relationships and the tracking of treatment courses.
Medical philosophy: 'The body does not function in isolation; only by understanding the ecosystem behind it can its rhythm and energy be truly restored.'
Tomoyuki Matsukura（松倉 智之）
Expert in Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Regeneration | Practitioner of Functional Medicine and Cellular Therapy
Background summary:
Tomoyuki matsukura has long been working on combining the most advanced anti aging science and Oriental philosophy, and has a broad influence in the functional medicine of Japan. His medical background extends over orthopedics, molecular nutrition and regenerative therapy, and is particularly useful in applying cell technology to the general symptoms such as skin aging, energy metabolism imbalance and hormonal disorders.
From his perspective, aging is not just about skin sagging or declining energy, but also about the gradual disruption of cellular-level information signaling. He advocated repairing cellular metabolic functions at their source, rebuilding endocrine stability, and promoting harmony in the body's microenvironment, thereby achieving a youthful state from the inside out.
He took the initiative to introduce growth factor therapy, stem cell culture fluid therapy, and a comprehensive micro-nutrition management system into clinical practice in Japan, emphasizing that treatment should not be limited to medical interventions but must also encompass daily rhythms, eating patterns, and emotional regulation.
He emphasized that true anti-aging is not about resisting time, but about learning the rhythm of how your body and time interact.
Medical Philosophy: 'Medicine is an art concerning time. It restores the body from anxiety and haste to a state of composed order.'
Takayuki Kubo（久保 隆之）
High-end Function Anti-Aging Specialist ｜ International Regenerative Therapy Advocate
Background summary:
Dr. Takashi Kubo graduated from Asahikawa Medical College and went to the famous Rockefeller college in the United States to study the functional medicine, molecular nutrition and cell repair mechanisms. He has a vision of certain clinical basis and internationalization, and is one of the representative people in Japan combined medical services and lifestyle management.
Through long-term clinical practice, he became acutely aware that traditional medicine focuses on treatment, while modern healthcare places even more emphasis on the 'optimization of lifestyle structure.' Therefore, he is dedicated to building a high-end, private health system that integrates stem cell therapy, hormone balance management, anti-aging aesthetics, and oral microcirculation repair.
He provides services to a large number of international clients and excels at formulating personalized health intervention pathways through blood analysis and dynamic evaluation of physiological indicators. His treatment plans are well-associated: anti-inflammatory regulation, microvascular activation, micronutrient support, and tissue function restoration.
I believe that slowing down aging is not just about technology, but also an attitude that involves choices regarding one's own perception and the rhythm of life.
Medical philosophy: 'True health management is not about rejecting aging, but about gracefully embracing change.'
