ABOUT:
FLOGEN Sustainability through Science and Technology/Sustainable Industrial Processing Summit (SIPS), is a yearly event that is deeply science-focused and technology & engineering-oriented. It has been organised since 2003 by the not-for- profit corporation. FLOGEN Stars Outreach ( www.flogen.org ), which is dedicated to achieving sustainability through science and technology. It incorporates summit plenary lectures from well-known speakers that address the link between scientific, technology and engineering domains in the pursuit of sustainable development, as well as specific science, technology and engineering symposia that feature technical presentations with the same goals in mind.

Based on the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework ( https://flogen.org/pdf/sips16_524FS.pdf ), following a long and rich tradition, the summit covers 3 sustainability pillars: (1) Science, Technology & Industry, (2) Governance & Management and (3) Education & Civil Society.

It attracts the participation of numerous Nobel laureates and many Distinguished Guests. It features in average about 50 scientific and technology symposia covering various distinguished fields. Academics, Engineers, Managers, Directors, CEOs, Medical Doctors, Lawyers, Economists and Politicians are in attendance.

SIPS is held annually since 2003 in various countries around the world: https://www.flogen.org/?p=32#toop

FLOGEN Star Outreach proudly celebrates a second milestone by Davis Joseph, recipient of the 2024 Semenza International Cell Engineering in Medicine Award. His latest single- author article, "The Unified Theory of Neurodegeneration Pathogenesis Based on Axon Deamidation," has achieved over 2,500 downloads in just one month, setting a new benchmark in scientific publishing.

This pioneering paper presents a unifying theory that identifies a common master switch underlying Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other brain-related diseases. The discovery holds promise for transformative, cross-cutting therapeutic approaches in neurodegenerative disease treatment.

This is Joseph’s second major breakthrough. His previous single-author publication in the Q1-ranked International Journal of Molecular Sciences was accessed over 9,000 times in just six months, already a rare achievement in the scientific community.

For this earlier work, Davis Joseph was honored at SIPS 2024 with the Semenza International Cell Engineering in Medicine Award, presented personally by Prof. Gregg Semenza, Nobel Laureate in Physiology or Medicine (2019).

Scientific Significance and Global Context

Joseph’s publications represent a rare and impactful form of scientific authorship: Both articles are single-author contributions—a format that made up only 0.43% of all research papers in 2020 ( source , Fig. 5B & Table 3).

The author conducted all theory development, experimentation, and methodology independently.

In comparison, many modern papers involve massive collaborations—one recent paper lists 5,154 co-authors.

Contextual Comparison:

The average article in a Q1 journal receives just 631 views in the first three months ( source ).

A study of 320 published articles in Archives of Plastic Surgery found that most papers received fewer than 50 accesses ( source ).

In stark contrast, Joseph’s latest article reached 2,500+ downloads in only 30 days, making it a record-setting accomplishment—especially for a single-author work.

For this achievement, Davis Joseph has been invited to deliver a plenary lecture at SIPS 2025, which will be held in Cebu, Philippines, from 17–20 November 2025.

Published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (Q1, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology), the article presents a breakthrough discovery related to the treatment of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases — entirely led, researched, and validated by Joseph himself.

Unmatched Achievement in Scientific Publishing

-The article's download count vastly outpaces typical Q1 journal performance, where papers average 631 views in the first 3 months (study).
-Among 320 papers published in Archives of Plastic Surgery over two years, only 1 surpassed 199 views (source).
-Single-author papers make up just 0.43% of all articles published in 2020 (data) — a rare feat in an era of hyper-collaborative science.

Scientific Excellence and Global Recognition

-A single-author article with groundbreaking implications in medicine.
-Developed and experimentally validated entirely by Joseph, showcasing rare scientific independence and innovation.
-For this pioneering work, Joseph received the Semenza International Cell Engineering in Medicine Award at FLOGEN SIPS 2024, presented by Prof. Gregg Semenza, 2019 Nobel Laureate in Medicine.
