Kazuhiro Hayashi is a Principal Senior Fellow and long-time Open Science advocate who blends a chemistry background from the University of Tokyo with decades of practical experience in scholarly publishing, open access, research data sharing, and citizen science. He has driven digital transformation of academic communication since the 1990s—building e-journals for the Chemical Society of Japan and later shaping national and international Open Science policy through roles at NISTEP, UNESCO, G7, OECD and Japan’s Cabinet Office. As a connector between policymakers, publishers, and researchers he co-founded Japan Open Science Summit and RDUF and helps steer initiatives like SPARC Japan and RDA. Unusually for a policy-focused leader, he also contributes hands-on iOS development to public health and UI libraries, demonstrating a rare mix of technical craftsmanship and high-level foresight.
