The functioning of a living cell is governed by intricate networks of physical, functional, and regulatory interactions among different types of molecules. The goal of our research is to build phenomenological and predictive models of these networks by developing approaches based on graph theory, data mining, and machine learning. We drive this work through collaborations with computer scientists and with life science researchers spanning diverse fields including biochemistry, infectious diseases, plant pathology, and tissue engineering.
