Algebraic Systems Biology
Science draws on mathematics and provides a playground for mathematicians. We develop mathematics for living systems, combining theory, computation, models, and data. From molecules to tissues, living systems are rich in structure. We use the mathematics of shape, dynamics, and high-dimensional data to find it.
Our work spans a set of connected research themes. The diagram below shows how they relate. Research explains each one; People shows who works on what. Publications lets you find our work, filterable by theme.
The group welcomes collaboration across mathematics, biology, and medicine
Collaborate
If you are working on a biological or clinical problem that may be amenable to mathematical analysis - particularly where standard statistical approaches have reached their limits - we would like to hear from you.
Join the group
We are always looking for mathematicians, computational scientists,
and quantitative biologists who want to work at the boundary between
rigorous mathematics and real biological problems.
When open positions are available, they are advertised here:
MPI-CBG Dresden PhD and
postdoctoral positions, as well as the
CSBD ELBE fellowship.
In England, find the
Oxford DPhil applications,
and
Oxford postdoc/fellowships.
