Topology driven methods for complex systems (TOPDRIM)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Many complex systems are characterized by multi-level properties that make the study of their dynamics and of their emerging phenomena a daunting task. The huge amount of data available in modern sciences can be expected to support great progress in these studies, even though the nature of the data varies. Given that, it is crucial to extract as much as possible features from data, including quali ...

From Data to Models: New Bioinformatics Methods and Tools for Data-Driven Predictive Dynamic Modelling in Biotechnological Applications (BIOPREDYN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Currently, biologists are collecting enormous amounts of ‘omics’ data in a vast number of different databases. Predictive, data-driven computational models are needed to understand the complex, multi-scale biological networks underlying these high-throughput datasets. Such models are non-linear and contain many parameters, which are difficult (or impossible) to measure directly. Instead, parameter ...

A quantitative model of thrombosis in intracranial aneurysms (THROMBUS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

Rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms (IA) has been studied at length. However, very little is known about the healing mechanism, namely the formation of a clot inside the cavity after insertion of a stent. The multiscale interaction between biological and hemodynamic processes is the central ingredient of this proposal. The core of the project is to develop and validate a biological model of spo ...
