A new consortium of industry, researchers, and innovators will further develop a knowledge base with digital models of the salmon’s body. This can lead to more sustainable aquaculture in the future.

In temperate and boreal regions, trees depend on a period of dormancy to survive the cold depths of winter. Scientists have cracked the code determining how trees enter and exit their dormant state.

We translate biological interactions into numbers and equations to deduce new insights.

We statistically assess the value of DNA as forensic evidence in a legal context.

We develop network-based methods for comparative regulomics, systems genetics, evolutionary studies, and analysis of host-microbiota interactions. 

We use sequencing data to study the diverse microbial world.

In a world where big data is creating new opportunities, it is no great leap from teaching tailored to your personality type to political advertising targeting your individual prejudices.
