Research Fields

In one cell alone, tens of thousands of molecules at different locations act simultaneously in various concentrations. How does it generate signals or receive, suppress or transmit signals from the environment? How does this manifold collection of molecules result in life?

To find answers to such questions, today our research objectives are trying to understand these life processes as a whole - as a system. However, this endeavor generates ever-increasing quantities of data that need to be analyzed in order to uncover new findings about an organism. This is where the new theoretical and mathematical approaches and computer modeling of such systems come in.
