Modeling the urinary tract-computational, physical, and biological methods

Computational modeling of biological barriers

One of the most important aspects for all life on this planet is the act to keep their biological processes in a state where they do not reach equilibrium. One part in the upholding of this imbalanced state is the barrier between the cells and their surroundings, created by the cell membrane. Additionally, terrestrial animal life often requires a barrier that protects the organism’s body from e...

Computational Modeling in Biological Fluid Dynamics

A major problem in characterising the locomotion of freely-moving, isolated cells in culture is the large variability between individual cells and the large variation in motile characteristics with time. DRIMAPS (Digitally Recorded Interference Microscopy with Automatic Phase Shifting) is a technique developed at the Randall Institute that overcomes this problem by enabling data from large numb...

Mean-field modeling and multiscale methods for complex physical and biological system

Computational Modeling Techniques for Biological Network

The rapid development and applications of high throughput measurement techniques bring the biological sciences into a 'big data' era. The vast available data for enzyme and metabolite concentrations, fluxes, and kinetics under normal or perturbed conditions in biological networks provide unprecedented opportunities to understand the cell functions. On the other hand, it brings new challenges of...
