Laboratory for Dynamics of Biological Systems.
Our lab aims at providing a simpler view of the incredible complexity of biological systems, primarily focusing on the regulation of the cell cycle. We believe that understanding the system dynamics is essential to achieving this goal. In our studies we glean techniques from physics and mathematics, such as the theory of nonlinear dynamics and complex systems, which allows us to ...

We are a group of enthusiastic multidisciplinary young researchers from both the Departments of Applied Physics and Photonics (TONA) and Physics (DNTK). We use experimental and theoretical methods (nonlinear dynamics, stochastic processes, complex systems, electromagnetism, general relativity, etc.) to tackle and answer some fundamental challenges about nonlinear, complex and time-evolving systems. This combination allows an imaginative and ...

Our group focuses on:
(1) The development of wet-lab and computational methods for single-cell multi-omics analyses –including genome, epigenome and transcriptome analyses of single cells– using microarray and next-generation sequencing technologies. We furthermore automate these methods using customised liquid handling robotics and microfluidics.
(2) The application of these methods to study the nature, rate and mechanisms of ...
