Projects

Most systems biology deals with Life as we know it on this planet (Earth). This project will focus on how (nonsynthetic) Life may differ from mainstream Life. The ultimate focus thereby rests on extraterrestrial Life, but for lack of definitive evidence of this, the project studies Life found under conditions that may be similar to extraterrestrial conditions enabling Life. The focus is herewith on the systems biology in remote environments on Earth. The project deals both with the systems cell ...

MOSES (Micro Organism Systems biology: Energy and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) develops a new Systems Biology approach, which is called 'domino systems biology'. It uses this to unravel the role of cellular free energy ('ATP') in the control and regulation of cell function. MOSES operates though continuous iterations between partner groups through a new systems-biology driven data-management workflow. MOSES also tries to serve as a substrate for three or more other SYSMO programs.
