Abstract
Understanding brain structure, function and its development is a main theme in the 2lst century. In Europe and U.S.A., "the Decade of the Brain" is planned and the related research activities are promoted. Also in Japan, the system has been formed and RIKEN BSI(Brain science Institute) was established in 1997 as a series of those activities. While researches in neuroscience are aggressively carried out in Japan, U.S.A. and Europe respectively, OECD Megascience Forum, which is promoting the international cooperation in megascience, established a Neuroinformatics Subgroup. They discuss the importance of integrating researches in neuroscience and the information technology, the necessity of the international cooperation of research in neuroscience, and also the influence of its information industry and medical field. Now I would like to make a presentation about Neuroinformatics - its definition, goal, measurements for development, the current movement and engaging plans in RIKEN BSI.
