Message

Our laboratory aims to extract useful technologies from neural circuits and apply them to next-generation information processing systems.
To build high-efficiency computing systems based on biomimetic approaches, it is essential to pursue seamless, end-to-end co-design across materials, devices, circuits, architectures, computational principles, algorithms, and applications.
Our research is conducted through close collaboration between the Yajima Group [Materials, Devices, and Circuits], which aims to construct information-processing units through a bottom-up approach using various inorganic materials and circuit technologies, and the Kawakami Group [Circuits, Architecture, and Computational Principles], which seeks to build computing systems through hardware–software co-design that integrates innovative devices with new computational principles.
If you are interested in comprehensive research and development of unprecedented information processing systems, please feel free to contact us.
