Research Areas

The research in our lab generally spans the boundary between experimental and theoretical molecular systems biology. We are particularly interested in the dynamics of gene regulation – from small-scale interactions such as transcription and translation, to the large-scale dynamics of gene regulatory networks. We use a hybrid experimental and computational approach to uncover the underlying design principles governing native gene networks and to use these concepts to design novel synthetic circuits.
