Systems Biology Center

The aim of the Systems Biology Center is to create integrated models of complex biological processes and test them across the entire cellular and physiological network of interactions. Using high throughput screening tools from the genomic, proteomic, and imaging arenas, coupled with powerful computing and modeling tools to assimilate acquired data, center investigators can examine gene and protein expression, enzyme activity, or other biological processes in a spatial and temporal context. Researchers in the Systems Biology Center are interested in diverse systems such as cardiac disease, oxidative stress, cellular differentiation and memory, cell energetics and metabolism, and kidney function.
