University of California, San Diego

UC San Diego researchers possess expertise in bioinformatics (the application of information science to molecular biology) and systems biology (the study of complex molecular and cellular networks) - fields that require the integration of engineering, mathematics, computer sciences, physical sciences, and biological sciences. Leveraging these strengths, along with UCSD's proficiency in supercomputing, team members will design biological applications and aid information theorists in developing novel information-theoretical methods.
