New techniques in cell and molecular biology have produced huge advances in ourunderstanding of signal transduction and cellular response in many systems, andthis has led to better cell-level models for problems ranging from biofilmformation to embryonic development. However, many problems involve very largenumbers of cells, and detailed cell-ba...

Practical applications in modern molecular and systems biology, such as the search for new therapeutic targets for diseases and stem cell reprogramming, have generated a great interest in the cell fate reprogramming, i.e., controlling the internal state of a cell so that it is driven from an initial state to a final target state. Although the to...

My lab has developed a unique cell-free transcription-translation platform to construct biochemical systems in vitro through the execution of gene circuits in either test tube reactions or at the scale of cells in microfluidics. I will present this technology, its unique versatility and capabilities, and the various applications that we are curr...

We present a distributed computation mechanism of persistent homology using cellular cosheaves. Our construction is an extension of the generalized Mayer-Vietoris principle to filtered spaces obtained via a sequence of spectral sequences. We discuss a general framework in which the distribution scheme can be adapted according to a user-specific ...

Cellular information processing is carried out by complex biomolecular networksthat are able to function reliably despite environmental noise and genetic mutations.The robustness and evolvability of biological systems is supported in part by neutralnetworks and neutral spaces that allow for the preservation of phenotype despite underlyinggenotyp...
