What is a Programme?
The Snoep Lab’s core research efforts are in Computational Systems Biology; a combined experimental, modeling and theoretical approach to quantitatively understand the functional behavior of Biological Systems resulting from the characteristics of their components. Our main focus is on metabolism, of human pathogens such as Plasmodium falciparum, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but also of breast cancer cell lines, and on modelling disease states such as glucose homeostatis in type 2 diabetes, and ...
Projects: Whole body modelling of glucose metabolism in malaria patients, Steroid biosynthesis, Yeast glycolytic oscillations, Computational pathway design for biotechnological applications, Glucose metabolism in cancer cell lines
