Research Area:

We are interested in quantitative studies of biological systems. We apply, develop and integrate theoretical, computational and experimental methods to address key biological questions. We believe that an interdisciplinary approach focusing on quantitative questions at a systems level will uncover new biological principles and help us to better understand complex disease and design new therapeutic strategies. Our current research areas include cell cycle regulation, cellular decision making, the relationship between function and topology in biological networks, cell fate transformation in development and reprogramming, and network-based disease mechanism.
