WPI-Bio2Q Anniversary Event
Venue 1F Lounge, Center for Integrated Medical Research, Shinanomachi Campus, Keio University
Date & Time Thursday, December 14, 2023          16:30 – 17:00   Ceremony, 17:00 – 19:00 Reception
Integrating Biology, Microbiome and Quantum Computing for Healthy Longevity

Human health is maintained by complex interactions between multiple organs. These interactions include the microbiome, which exists on every external surface of the body, and the resulting information is processed and utilized in a coordinated manner.

Our center will develop novel research techniques to understand the interactions between multiple organs and the microbiome and develop methods to apply quantum computing to human biology. Our mission is to forge a new interdisciplinary research area that will lead to groundbreaking progress in elucidating the regulatory mechanisms sustaining human health. In the long term, we will develop new prophylactic/ therapeutic approaches to promote healthy longevity.
