Julio is the leader of the Computational Biology Lab at MBG-CSIC (Pontevedra, Spain), an institute of CSIC (Spanish National Research Council). More info at https://www.bangalab.org
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
...
I'm currently a Postdoc at the Institute of Technical Biochemistry in Stuttgart University. My project involves the experimental validation of the Indirect Enzymatic Dehydration Via Phosphorylation and Dephosphorylation of Isobutanol for Isobutene production.

My research activities has been to use mathematical models and Computational Biology to answer biological questions, intertwining in silico and experimental methods at all stages. I have a strong interest in exploring the interfaces between Fundamental Biology and bona fide Engineering, specifically in the realm of environmental and industrial problems. The research goals of my group are to contribute to the elucidation of mechanisms underlying basic cellular processes, evolution and ecological ...
