WASHINGTON—In a significant recognition of groundbreaking contributions to the field of endocrinology, the Endocrine Society has awarded Dr. Yoshitomo Hoshino, M.D., Ph.D., with the prestigious 2025 C. Wayne Bardin, M.D., International Travel Award. This accolade acknowledges Dr. Hoshino’s exemplary research abstract submitted to the annual ENDO meeting and recognizes his profound impact on advancing clinical care for patients suffering from complex bone health disorders.

The C. Wayne Bardin, M.D., International Travel Award was established to honor the legacy of Dr. Wayne Bardin, a former Endocrine Society President renowned for his exemplary research in reproductive physiology and contraception. Emblematic of scientific excellence and clinical innovation, the award offers a $3,000 grant to facilitate the recipient’s participation in the ENDO meeting as well as complimentary registration, enabling leading researchers worldwide to share their work and foster international collaboration in endocrinology.

Dr. Hoshino currently serves as a physician-scientist in the Department of Nephrology and Endocrinology at The University of Tokyo Hospital, where he integrates clinical practice with rigorous research in internal medicine. His extensive clinical expertise, rooted in a deep understanding of endocrine physiology, has fueled intricate investigations into bone and mineral metabolism—fields critical for elucidating the molecular and systemic mechanisms underlying skeletal health and disorder.

A particularly transformative aspect of Hoshino’s research is his identification of a novel autoimmune mechanism responsible for acquired FGF23-related hypophosphatemic osteomalacia. This rare but debilitating condition is characterized by phosphate wasting and bone softening due to inadequate mineralization. His pioneering work has led to the conceptualization of “autoimmune osteomalacia” as a distinct disease entity, shedding light on the interplay between immune system dysregulation and mineral homeostasis.

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine, Hoshino’s findings provide compelling evidence that aberrant autoantibodies targeting proteins involved in fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) regulation disrupt phosphate metabolism, thereby inducing osteomalacia. This paradigm-shifting discovery not only expands current understanding of bone pathophysiology but also opens new avenues for targeted immunotherapies that could modulate or halt disease progression.

Bridging clinical observations with molecular biology, Dr. Hoshino exemplifies translational research by leveraging patient data to inform mechanistic studies. This bidirectional approach enhances diagnostic accuracy and promotes the development of novel therapeutics in endocrinology. His dedication aligns with an evolving research paradigm that seeks to integrate basic scientific insights with real-world patient outcomes to optimize clinical decision-making.

The implications of Hoshino’s work transcend rare disorders; phosphate homeostasis and FGF23 signaling are central to various chronic conditions including chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. By elucidating the autoimmune basis of certain mineral metabolism disorders, his research could precipitate broader advances in understanding how endocrine and immune system interactions influence systemic health.

Dr. Hoshino’s recognition by the Endocrine Society prominently signals the global community’s appreciation of innovative research at the intersection of endocrinology, immunology, and nephrology. His work represents a vital contribution to personalized medicine, highlighting how precise molecular characterizations of disease entities enable tailored therapeutic interventions.

Beyond his scientific accomplishments, Dr. Hoshino’s role in mentoring emerging physician-scientists and fostering collaborative networks underscores the importance of nurturing the next generation of investigators dedicated to hormone-related research. The international scope of his work exemplifies the collaborative spirit encouraged by the Endocrine Society in addressing complex health issues worldwide.

The Endocrine Society, established as the world’s oldest and largest organization devoted to hormone research and clinical care, supports over 18,000 professionals spanning scientists, educators, and clinicians across 122 countries. Through awards like the C. Wayne Bardin International Travel Award, the Society furthers its mission to catalyze innovation and improve patient outcomes in hormone-related conditions ranging from diabetes and obesity to infertility, bone disorders, and hormone-driven cancers.

With Dr. Hoshino’s work blurring the traditional boundaries between endocrinology and immunology, the future looks promising for unlocking new diagnostic biomarkers and targeted treatment strategies for bone mineral disorders. The recognition afforded to such pioneering research at forums like ENDO fosters the dissemination of knowledge essential for advancing medical science on a global scale.
