POSITION SUMMARY

Tremendous opportunities for discovery have emerged in the biological sciences, requiring the combined power of theory, data analysis, and simulation. Researchers are being confronted by an explosion of information from genome sequencing, gene expression profiling, proteomics, electron microscopy and tomography, and multiple high-resolution imaging modalities both dynamic and static.

The Center for Computational Biology has both overarching and smaller-scale interests: Development of computational methods, for solving forward problems (evolutionary dynamics of biophysical systems) using cutting edge methods, and for data analysis of large-dimensional data (machine learning, inference, etc); Regulatory and genetic networks; Integrating multi-modal data (e.g.
