In the Computational Biology Research Center (CBRC) of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, “Strategic Programs for Innovative Research Field 1 Human Resources Fostering Program” is being implemented. The program consists of a wide range of activities, from training for novices in bioinformatics, to cultivation of human resources who can make full use of the supercomputer, “K computer”, by providing seminars, workshops, tutorial training, and e-learning to the public, and by combining computational science with life science in a sophisticated way. The details of activities for FY 2013 will be announced on the website (http://hpci.cbrc.jp) as soon as they are decided.
