Prof. Kenichi Fukui, a Nobel Prize laureate in Chemistry 1981 together with Prof. Roald Hoffmann, was born in Nara prefecture on Oct. 4, 1918. To celebrate Prof. Kenichi Fukui's 100th birthday, we organize ''FUKUI 2018'', a series of memorial events in Kyoto University.

-- [Oct. 3 (Wed) - Dec. 9(Sun), 2018] Memorial Exhibition at the [[Kyoto University Museum:http://www.museum.kyoto-u.ac.jp/]].

-- [Oct. 11 (Thu), 2018] JGP Memorial Seminar by Prof. Roald Hoffmann at Katsura Campus, Kyoto University.

** Scope [#o20e6a11]
-- [Oct. 12 (Fri), 2018] [[The Memorial Symposium:http://www.fukui.kyoto-u.ac.jp/memorial/]] at Yoshida Campus, Kyoto University.

The conference ''Unifying concepts in glass physics IV'' will be held in Kyoto during November 25-28, 2008. This conference is the fourth edition of a series, held previously in Trieste in 1999, Rome in 2002 and Bangalore in 2004. Continuing the spirit of the previous editions, the focus of the conference will be put on universal aspects in the behavior of glassy systems. Topics covered include theoretical studies of glass transition, experimental and computational studies of dynamics in the super cooled liquid and glassy states as well as other glassy systems such as spin glasses, colloidal glasses, gels and proteins. 
-- [Oct. 13 (Sat), 2018] The Satellite Symposium at FIFC (This event).

In the Satellite Symposium at FIFC, we wish to highlight the various contributions of FIFC, 
which was established to succeed and develop Prof. Kenichi Fukui's philosophy on researches whereby we will contribute to the progress of sciences in the world,
with inviting a few active scientists from former and the present members of FIFC as lectures.
We also would like to invite Poster contributions related to the broad topics in Chemistry and Physics from all over the world to shear this memorial moment.
