Josai International University will hold a series of lectures, "Lecture Series," to explain various research themes in an easy-to-understand manner and think together as part of the 30th anniversary commemorative project.The first symposium will be held on April 2022, 4 (Thursday) with Professor Yuji Ikegaya of the University of Tokyo on the theme of "Medical Care and AI (Artificial Intelligence), Current Situation and Future Image".In addition, since the day is the anniversary of the founding of Josai International University, he will also give a start-up lecture.The event will be distributed online and will be widely disclosed.
At the opening lecture and symposium, a special lecture "AI, brain, and medical care" by Professor Yuji Ikegaya of the Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the University of Tokyo, and a lecture "Future drug discovery and prediction" by Professor Yuichi Sugiyama of Josai International University will be given. ..Professor Ikeya specializes in neuroscience, pharmacology, and artificial intelligence, and in addition to researching the plasticity of the hippocampus and cerebral cortex, he is the research supervisor of the ERATO Ikeya Brain AI Fusion Project in the Strategic Creative Research Promotion Project conducted by the Japan Science and Technology Agency. Also serves.Professor Sugiyama specializes in pharmacokinetics and transporter drug discovery, and has been studying the application of mathematical models aimed at improving drug discovery efficiency for many years.
After the lecture, Professor Kenji Sugibayashi (Doctor of Philosophy) of Josai International University will join Professor Ikeya and Professor Sugiyama as moderators for a panel discussion. Based on today's questions such as "What is the fusion of AI and the brain?" "How will AI be utilized in medical treatment?" "What is drug discovery based on predictions by mathematical models?" Think about the future of medical care, the future of drug discovery, and the future of elucidating brain functions with the venue and online participants.
Those who wish to participate should apply from the dedicated form by April 4 (Tuesday).The secretariat will deliver the access method for the day within the 26th.
