Understanding the evolution of gene regulatory networks through biophysical modelling and machine learning

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

The ability to coordinate the expression of genes within a cell is at the heart of life. When and how much of a specific gene is turned into a protein is essential for organisms to respond to their environment and to manage resources. Read more
