Our research is focused in computational systems and synthetic biology.

We use mathematical modelling, simulation and optimization to understand complex biological systems and processes.

Current research topics include:

• Reverse engineering: systems identification (dynamic modelling) of biological networks

• Forward engineering: computer-aided design in synthetic biology

• Optimality principles in biological systems

• Dynamics and optimal control of biosystems
