Current Research

The aim of our study is to understand robustness and plasticity of
complex biological dynamics involving a large number of components,
including adaptation, evolution, development and immune system. By
using computer simulations of simple models, theoretical analysis, and
high-throughput experimental measurements, we will try to extract
universal characteristics of biological dynamics and to establish
macroscopic theories for biological robustness and plasticity.
