HOME Topics Project Outline • Present Status of the Kyoto Model • Application of the Simulator for Diabetes Mellitus Treatment • Application of the Biosimulator for the Selection of the Effective Dosage and Therapy • Genopathy Simulation • Control and Simulation in Engineering Myocardial (Cardiac Muscle) Cell Simulator Simulator for a pancreatic Beta Cell Project Team Strategy for the Development of the Simulator Links Activity		The cell / biodynamics simulation project integrates experimental data as well as genome and proteome studies. Association with the Life Activity Analysis Model MRI Data based Computational Modeling of a Myocardical Cell and a Beating Heart Prof. Matsuda's group (Kyoto University, Graduate School of Informatics) uses human cardiac MRI image data for the 3 dimensional reconstruction of the heart and to analyze the arrangement of myocardial cells. Assistance to Patient-specific Medical Care The simulator may be used to select the best treatment and suitable drugs for an individual by utilizing patient-specific genomic and general clinical examination data. Efficiency Enhancement in Drug Development Conventional drug development depends on knowledge and experience of researchers. Using the simulator more effective drug development is possible. Importantly, simulation can be used to replace animal experiments.
