Division of Health and Clinical Data
Overview
The Division of Health and Clinical Data promotes the establishment of infrastructure and research environment for genome and health/medical data. This division supports research such as on the etiology derived from genetic mutation/polymorphism throughout one’s life as well as on the development of ICT and AI using health/medical data, so that the results of the studies can lead to prevention of disease onset/progression, diagnosis, and treatment of disease in the clinical settings.
