A new project, “HD Physiology”, is supported by grant-in-aid for scientific research on innovative areas from MEXT, Japan. This project aims to develop methods and a computational platform, where physiological and pathological information can be described in high-definition across multiple scales of time and size.  During the 5 years of this project, we try to develop a whole heart model together with pharmacokinetics for the assessment of the heart proarrhythmic risk of drugs.
