DDEP: Collaborative Research in Japan for Designing Molecular Motor Communication Systems

OISE-0741742 (Suda, University of California at Irvine)DDEP：日本设计分子运动通信系统的合作研究摘要该奖项支持博士生Michael Moore先生在日本进行有关沿纳米级网络传输信息分子的分子通信系统的博士论文研究。Moore先生将与国立信息通信技术研究所（NICT）神户高级信息通信技术研究中心的Kazuhiro Oiwa教授及其生物信息通信技术小组合作。摩尔先生的论文研究的一个目标是开发一个基于细胞内运输的工程分子通信系统的计算机模拟模型。他在他的家乡机构的工作重点是模拟分子运动通信设计，在NICT，他将进行体外实验和计算机模拟，以确定目标通信系统的可行性，并利用爱荷华大学小组的设备和专业知识改进其设计。这项研究是PI和NICT之间更大的跨学科合作的一部分，其中分子被用作通信载体。

OISE-0741742 (Suda, University of California at Irvine)DDEP: Collaborative Research in Japan for Designing Molecular Motor Communication SystemsAbstractThis award supports Mr. Michael Moore, Ph.D. student, to conduct doctoral dissertation research in Japan related to a molecular communication system that transports information molecules along a nano-scale network. Mr. Moore will work with Professor Kazuhiro Oiwa and his Biological ICT Group at the Kobe Advanced ICT Research Center of the National Institute of Information and Communication Technology (NICT). One objective of Mr. Moore's dissertation research is to develop a computer simulation model of an engineered molecular communication system based upon the intracellular transport of cells. His work at his home institution focuses on simulation of molecular motor communication designs, and at NICT he will performs in vitro experiments and computer simulations to determine the feasibility of the target communication system and to improve its design using the equipment and expertise of the Oiwa group. The research is part of a larger interdisciplinary collaboration between the PI and NICT in which molecules are used as communication carriers.
