WPI-Bio2Q participated in Metabolome Symposium 2023 by exhibiting at a booth in Kawasaki, Japan from October 18 to 20.
Chairperson of the Executive Committee: Makoto Arita, Professor, Keio University Faculty of Pharmacy /Team Leader, RIKEN Biomedical Sciences Research Center
The following scientific messages were shared with visitors at the WPI-Bio2Q booth.
- Accumulate multiomics data from humans and model organisms and compile a multidimensional database.
- Elucidate the structure and function of microbiome-derived metabolites.
- Refine imaging metabolomics and structural biology to promote in situ functional analysis of metabolites in organs and cells.
- Develop quantum computing-based algorithms and pipelines to analyze the interactions between multiple organs and microorganisms.
- Model the interface between the environment and the human body by advancing organoid technology and animal models and elucidate the mechanisms underlying the conversion of external factors into internal signals.
- Leverage connectomics and structural biology to understand the dynamic multiorgan interactions, including gut-brain communication.
