Computational Biomodelling Laboratory Combio

The research of the laboratory centers on foundational computational approaches for quantitative biology. Our general approach is to understand as computations the myriad of biochemical processes that evolve in parallel, influence each other, propagate signals, or cooperate on various tasks. Our goal is to increase the understanding of how entire cells adapt, communicate, and survive in dynamic environments, all in terms of computations.

Our group is leading research on computational bio-processes, including computational processes in living cells, as well as nature-inspired human-designed computations. We have considerable expertise in building discrete and continuous models, in graph theory, combinatorics, model checking and theoretical computer science. Our group consists primarily of theoretical computer scientists and mathematicians.
