OrangeGrid: Shifting evolutionary genetics research into high-gear

The grand challenge currently facing biologists is to decipher how the information in our genome manifests itself as the biological characteristics that make up who we are. This process is referred to as establishing genotype-phenotype associations and the ability of scientists to establish these connections in a wide range of organisms has been revolutionized by the rapid increase in available genome sequences.

Understanding Collective Motion

The Manning group uses theoretical and computational tools to understand collective motion in disordered, non-equilibrium “materials”, where “materials” range from granular solids, to foams, to groups of cells in biological tissues engaged in processes like wound healing, embryonic development, and cancer metastasis.
