About the BiRG
If you don’t work on important problems, it’s not likely that you’ll do important work. — Richard Hamming
We develop algorithms to investigate problems in the life sciences. Our research interests include pattern analysis in high-dimensionality data sets, multivariate statistics, evolutionary computation and optimization, computational science, cloud computing, and eScience. We apply our research to a variety of problems from fields such as biochemistry and molecular biology. We currently have multidisciplinary projects underway in metabolomics, human cognition, toxicology, and immunology.
Director: Dr. Paul Anderson
