Congratulations for the upcoming issue of Internal Medicine – Open Journal (IMOJ). I feel glad to observe the development of new world with many historical antecedent doctors. At first, I would like to introduce a prominent doctor, Shigeaki Hinohara, who has been well-known worldwide.1 He had been extremely active in various fields until 105 years as a physician in the St. Luke International Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
