77cell biology research using human and mouse tissues. Single cell biology is bringing about a big impact on the life sciences and healthcare. International research collaboration projects on single cell biology, such as the Human Cell Atlas, are being conducted worldwide. Since 2019, RIKEN IMS has built the Single Cell Medical Network engaging with medical institutions across Japan to collect and process human clinical samples to elucidate the mechanisms of health and disease using the 5’-based single-cell genomics strategy. RIKEN IMS has also contributed to the all-RIKEN research project, integrated life science research to chal-lenge super aging society, by building the mouse aging cell atlas.During the meeting, we had three talk sessions: “Building the Single Cell Medical Network in Japan” led by Jay W. Shin, “Update on the Mouse Aging Atlas” led by Aki Minoda, “Single-cell data integration: multi-omics, multi-sample and multi-species” led by Chung-Chau Hon, and a panel discussion about “the current and future applications of single cell genomics in improving medicine and life” by outstanding researchers at IMS. Young research-ers and representatives from inside and outside of RIKEN IMS presented their cutting-edge research projects followed by active discussion.allowed us to conduct the planned joint activities in 2021 with the Karolinska Institute (KI) and Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) in Sweden.For the year 2022 and onwards, we plan to annually conduct the RIKEN-KI-SciLifeLab Symposium series, one year in Yoko-hama and the next year in Stockholm. The topics of the coming symposia might be aligned with the new Data Driven Life Sci-ences (DDLS) project hosted at SciLfeLab.The RIKEN-KI Joint Doctoral Course is planned to be held in conjunction with the Symposium to give young researchers participating in the doctoral course the opportunity to also par-ticipate in the symposium.We are very much looking forward to continuing the success-ful joint events with our partners in Sweden.MeetingThursday, October 29th, 2021, 10:00 AM JST – 5:00 PM JSTOnline ZoomAttendees95 attendeesKI facade Campus Solna (Photo provided by KI Mediabank)RIKEN IMS Joint Human and Mouse Cell Atlas MeetingRIKEN IMS hosted a joint online meeting focusing on single Activities planned for the collaboration with the Karolinska Institute and Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) in Sweden in 2022The COVID-19 related travel restrictions since 2020 have not
