On October 17 (Mon.), the kick-off meeting for the CORE 2-A Laboratory Collaborative Research Project “Multi-Network Whole Cell Analysis Using AMATERAS, a Trans-Scale Scope” was held at ISIR, Osaka University, under the Cross Appointment System of the Collaborative Research Network Institutes consisting of the Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, Hokkaido University; Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials, Tohoku University; Institute of Chemical Life Sciences, Faculty of Science and Technology, Tokyo Institute of Technology; SANKEN, Osaka University; and Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, Kyushu University. The kick-off meeting for the 2-A Joint Research Proposal “Multi-Network Whole Cell Analysis Using AMATERAS Trans-scale Scope” was held at ISIR, Osaka University.
　This Proposal brings together related researchers, Expanded Joint Research Programs, and research collaborators from the above five Research Institutes at the above five universities to integrate measurement, mathematics, information, and biology around the trans-scale scope AMATERAS, aiming to expand our understanding of life phenomena from fragmentary and common understanding to comprehensive and individualized understanding. We hope to attract more researchers!
