Research Overview
Bioinformatics is a research field that aims to understand biological phenomena by analyzing large-scale biological data through the application of computer science. In our laboratory, we focus particularly on elucidating the functions of genes and non-coding RNAs with unknown functions. Our research advances through multiple approaches, including algorithm development, function prediction using machine learning, and validation through wet-lab experiments.
