We are pleased to announce that Hirochi Takahashi, Lecturer at the University of Tokyo's Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology, will be the keynote speaker on Saturday, March 3, 2018. The title of his speech is.Artificial Intelligence vs Life Intelligence - Reverse Engineering the BrainIt is.

Takahashi's unique research includes controlling the movement of a mobile robot according to the activity of neurons using a system that observes the activity of cultured neurons in real time. He will also talk about this research in his keynote speech.

Mr. Takahashi has also published books such as "Introduction to Brain Science for Mechanics - Reverse Engineering the Brain" (Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, Ltd.) and "Introduction to Brain Science for Mechanics - Memory, Learning and Consciousness" (Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, Ltd.) that explain brain mechanisms from an engineering rather than life science perspective in an easy-to-understand manner. The book is published by Nikkan Kogyo Shinbunsha, Ltd.

If you would like to attend the keynote speech on March 3, please register using the registration form for the 7th Annual Meeting of the Association for Transdisciplinary Research.

What is the Society for Transdisciplinary Research?

Since 2002, when RIVERNESS was founded, we have held an annual "Super Hetero-Disciplinary Exchange Meeting" where students and researchers participating in internship programs at RIVERNESS discuss their thoughts on their research and issues they wish to solve through their research. Since 2012, the conference has evolved into a "super interdisciplinary conference" with the participation of researchers from industry and academia, where discussions are held from a broader perspective.
Today, the meeting is held annually as a gathering of people from diverse fields and industries, ranging from junior high and high school students, researchers and engineers in academia (including engineers from local factories), people involved in venture companies, accelerators, and managers and business development personnel from large corporations.
