Quantitative analysis of genetic and biochemical systems

Our laboratory is working on various problems connected with the functioning and evolution of biological systems. In particular, we are interested in the systemic description of genetic and biochemical networks, such as those responsible for gene regulation. Our approach is based on quantitative experimental measurements and theoretical modeling. We use mathematical tools (mainly from statistics and combinatorics) and algorithmic tools to study basic principles of cellular functioning starting from genomic data.
