Summary

I am a Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) Cross-Disciplinary Fellow at the Molecular Sciences Institute, Berkeley, California. My research interests span every technological areas relevant to cell modeling and simulation, and include effects of non-idealistic nature of intracellular media on signaling pathways,single cell measurement techniques such as correlation spectroscopy, asynchronous discrete event simulation algorithms, and high-performance computing. I am a founding steering committee member of the E-Cell Project, and am the creator / chief system architect of the cellular simulation platform E-Cell System.

Roles in The E-Cell Project

  • I am a Founding Steering Committee Member of the E-Cell Project.
  • I am also the Creator / Chief System Architect of the E-Cell System.

More on My Research Interests

  • This paper describes some motivating questions and possible approaches with regard to my current projects at the Molecular Sciences Institute. If you feel more comfortable to read in Japanese, here is some article (a bit old but essentially up to date).
  • There is a conference paper that briefly mentions what I believe are the challenges the E-Cell Project and computational cell biology at large will face in relatively near future, and what I believe are the directions we should explore.

About my name

I used to spell my name Kouichi Takahashi but I changed it to Koichi Takahashi in 2005.

My name in Kanji is 高橋恒一. Strictly speaking, 高 has to be 髙, if it makes any difference to you.
