We Develop Innovative Tools to Simulate Complex Scenarios

We investigate large-scale biological, social and technological systems at play in the world. By simulating scenarios of unfolding situations, we provide insights to help decision makers refine science-based responses. In the process, we produce high-tech tools and foundational knowledge that solve large-scale, complex challenges and advance the science of biocomplexity.

Applying High-Tech Know-How to Scientific Endeavors

We apply our computational modeling tools and combined expertise to tackle a broad swath of issues affecting human life – from improving disaster resiliency in city infrastructures to identifying previously unknown organisms in our environments and bodies.

Systems Biology and Bioinformatics

We develop tools to distill vast medical and ecological data and share them with research scientists, healthcare professionals and policymakers.

Population Health Informatics

By computing predictive models, we provide public-health policymakers with data and analysis to identify and respond to epidemics.
