A social demand on future sophisticated medical infrastructure has been
increased according to increase of senior citizens in a world. The Center
for Future Medical Social Infrastructure Based on Information Communications
Technology (ICT), simply called Medical ICT (MICT) Center, was established
on September 29, 2005 in order to research engineering and science for
creation of intelligent social infrastructures for medical care and social
welfare as well as commerce, transportation and energy using ICT with other
advanced technologies. The Center is cooperated with the School of Medicine
and Graduate School of Medicine of Yokohama City University (YCU), and
the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT)
to share human resource and facilities and to pursue experiment and education
for joint areas between engineering and medicine.
