RESEARCH PROGRAMMES

The Computational Biology and Health Genomics programme aims to increase our understanding of genome function in humans and all living organisms.  The programme has broad interests in topics ranging from human...

How to build a cell and to organize many cells into functional multicellular units in an organism is a fascinating challenge. Many different components of a cell work together seamlessly to produce...

The Genome Biology program focuses on investigating the mechanisms that lead to expression of our genome during homeostasis, cell reprogramming, and disease. We use quantitative ‘omics’...

 

In the Systems and Synthetic Biology program we are transforming molecular biology into a predictive engineering science.  Decades of molecular biology...

Transversal Research Areas

The human body consists of trillions of cells, but a mutation in one of them can cause cancer. This example demonstrates that biology is not a process driven by averages and highlights the importance of single cell-...
