Our group works at the interface of the limits of algorithmic learning and the limits of biological experimentation in pursuit of the organizing principles of molecular, cellular and tissue processes.
A central vision of the lab is to study cellular pathways and tissue biology at scales that appear impossible to achieve, but which in fact are possible, by leveraging biological structure together with algorithmic and experimental designs that can exploit that structure. We apply this approach to discover systems and decipher their organization at three scales: regulatory networks acting intracellularly, networks acting between cells in a tissue microenvironment, and spatial organization across larger scales in a developmental process.
