Computational Biology: Research Teams

Computational Biology research activities are organized around several principal areas, with lots of opportunity for collaboration.

Biological Transport and Networks

A 3D molecular model with red, blue, and purple spheres clustered together, glowing brightly at the center against a dark background, representing a complex chemical or biological structure.

Biomolecular Design

A circular, abstract pattern with various shades of green, resembling swirling, textured foliage or lettuce leaves arranged concentrically.

Biophysical Modeling

Fluorescent microscope image of a cell with two bright blue circular structures on each side, surrounded by a red, textured background, set against a black backdrop.

CCBScope Observatory

A red sphere in the center is surrounded by ten yellow spheres in a circle, with dotted radial lines and dot patterns on a dark background.

CCBx

A microscopic close-up of ten glowing blue and yellow fungal spore sacs radiating outward against a black background, forming a symmetrical, flower-like pattern.

Developmental Dynamics

A digital illustration of a brain with interconnected nodes, labeled with gene names, showing neural pathways with orange lines connecting various points inside outlined brain sections.

Genomics

A swirling blue liquid

Statistical Biophysics

A dense, intricate web of black and white molecular structures with complex lines and geometric shapes, resembling overlapping chemical diagrams on a black background.
