Dr. Fabian Theis, Head of Computational Health Center, Helmholtz Institute Munich Modeling cellular state as well as dynamics e.g. during differentiation or in response to perturbations is a central goal of computational biology. Single-cell technologies now give us easy and large-scale access to state observations on the transcriptomic and more recently also epigenomic level. This […]

Dr. Niall Mangan (Northwestern), Assistant Professor of Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics, Northwestern University Zoom link: https://berkeley.zoom.us/j/93709307860?pwd=Vm9oQkhZc3VPeHNBZndNZXBMT0MrQT09 Abstract: Inferring the structure and dynamical interactions of complex biological systems is critical to understanding and controlling their behavior. I am interested in discovering mechanistic and informative models, assuming I have time-series data of important state variables and […]
