About CUBE
The Division of Computational Systems Biology | CUBE at the Centre for Microbiology and Environmental Systems Science | CeMESS is a group of bioinformaticians and computational biologists. CUBE focuses on understanding biological systems, ranging from single species to multi-species systems and ecosystems.
Our research is based on data from large-scale bioanalytical methods. Researchers in our group develop, improve and apply computational methods for the interpretation of molecular information in biology. We establish and analyse quantitative mathematical models.
