Bio-Information Network Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that reads biological networks through the power of algorithms and learning theory.
AboutAbout the lab
Solving life with the fundamental theory of information science.
The Bio-Information Network Lab (Mathematical Bioinformatics Group, Bioinformatics Center, Institute for Chemical Research; the Akutsu Lab) focuses on bioinformatics and systems biology, mainly from the perspectives of information science and mathematical science. It carries out research and development ranging from theory to building systems that can actually be used.
Its research is based on the fundamental theory of information science (algorithm theory and learning theory), so students can acquire both bioinformatics and information science at the same time.
The lab is a cooperating division of the Department of Intelligence Science and Technology, Graduate School of Informatics.
