about us
We are an eclectic group of mathematical scientists and wet-lab experimentalists working to uncover the mechanisms (precisely, the organizing principles) of one of nature’s most important inventions — i.e. adaptive immunity. We encode these mechanisms in parsimonious mathematical models for deductive purposes. While we rely on both mathematics and the human brain’s amazing capacity for induction to uncover the mechanisms of interest from empirical facts, we also program and use machines (AI) as complementary tools of induction and for making predictions.
To learn about the mechanisms we have uncovered and other results of our previous work, see Completed projects. For more information about our current work, see Research.
