What we do

In the last years we have pioneered detailed computational modeling and simulation for investigating the structure-function interplay in biological systems. We were able to show that cells and organelles alter their morphology in order to adapt their computational properties for long-term information storage. Our research is dedicated to evolving numerical methods and large scale computing essential for solving systems of nonlinear partial differential equations that describe the underlying continuum models.
