Welcome to the Computational Systems Biology group of the School of Computing, National University of Singapore. We are developing modeling, simulation and analysis techniques to study signaling and biochemical networks. We collaborate with a number of biologists as an integral part of our research.

Why Computational Systems Biology?

It seems clear that computational modeling, simulation and analysis will play a vital role in biology. In many systems, large numbers of diverse and multi-functional molecules interact dynamically to produce coherent behavior. Such complex interactions and their dynamics over time and space need to be analyzed to understand and manipulate the functionalities being realized by these biological systems and processes. At the same time, technological advances are making it possible to obtain large volumes of fine-grained experimental data concerning such processes. Hence this seems to be the right time for building computational 'systems biology' frameworks.
