Bioinformatics and Computational biology in Japan: Best universities Ranked

Below is a list of best universities in Japan ranked based on their research performance in Bioinformatics and Computational biology. A graph of 5.55M citations received by 171K academic papers made by 207 universities in Japan was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
