First Seminar on Tohoku University Research DX Strategy
Information
Tohoku University established the Tohoku Forum for Creativity in 2013 as an international visitor research institute promoting research via its thematic programs and junior research programs.　The Research DX Support Center has been newly established within the Tohoku Forum for Creativity in November 2020.
The Research DX Support Center assists in data management tasks, such as remote data acquisition, high-speed data processing, and other data-driven technology. Data managers and data scientists will support the research community in responding to the ongoing digital transformation (DX).
The Research DX Support Center is now researching how to promote research DX in the future. In this context, we have planned a series of seminars in which speakers present cutting-edge initiatives. The first seminar will focus on the fields of medicine and materials science. Dr. Amane Koizumi of the National Institutes of Natural Sciences and Dr. Hiroyuki Akinaga of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology will give lectures. We hope that the seminar will provide an opportunity to exchange information with researchers and engineers at universities and companies interested in research DX.
* This event will be held in Japanese.
