We are pursuing two different but mutually interconnected research interests: research and development of biologically inspired computing architectures including artificial neural networks and applying such advanced information processing technologies to life science research. More specifically, we are working on development of BriCA (Brain-inspired Computing Architecture), a high-performance software platform for brain-inspired computing, development of high-performance genome-scale simulation software platform E-Cell System, and automating various processes in biological experiments by combining robotics and AI.
Research Theme
- Genome-scale cell simulation software platform
