The National Center for Neurology and Psychiatry in Japan has partnered with NTT Corporation to develop a brain bio-digital twin technology to detect and prevent mental illnesses.

A platform for processing digital twins, which is targeted to be built next year, will collect various data types from medical exams provided by NCNP. The NCNP is currently building a library of data on mental and nervous system diseases, which includes PET and bio-samples that are useful for analysing cranial nerve diseases.
The digital library will be later used to create detailed maps and biological models powered by NTT’s AI and ML processing technology.
