Algorithmic Lens on Biology Laboratory

The AlgoBioLab combines theory, computation, and wet-lab experimentation to understand basic principles of biological organization. We study molecular and genetic organization at the level of cells and tissues; how evolution shapes organization in high dimensional, complex living systems; and how biological organization interacts with fundamental principles of statistics to determine the limits of experimentation. Most of our work is motivated by curiosity and a fondness for deep thinking, but we also do a fair amount of computational and experimental method development when it suits us.
