This richly illustrated document—136 Figures with innumerable chemists shown—supplements Ryoji Noyori’s autobiography, Research Should Be Fresh, Simple, and Clear (Berlin, 2025; doi: 10.47261/1564). It recounts his attendance at international conferences, his invited lectures, and personal encounters across Japan, the United States, Europe, and Asia. The focus is on scientific networks, institutional cultures, and the role of personal trust in cross-border collaboration, echoing Louis Pasteur’s maxim that science transcends borders. The material deepens the autobiography’s international perspective and explicitly encourages early-career researchers to invest in long-term global cooperation.
