Biomedical Big Data Office

In 2020, we established the Biomedical Big Data Office (BMBDO), an extensive database to curate scientific data across all life sciences. We invite outstanding experts to collect vast amounts of data, analyze their findings with AI and other techniques, and reapply the results in their study. We also continuously train our superior data science personnel.
