We aspire to tackle important questions in the study of metabolic networks that underlie challenges in human health & well-being. We perform experiments to understand the systems-level function of cellular metabolic networks and we develop novel computational tools to integrate high-throughput data in order to predict how cells respond to environmental & genetic perturbations. We perform further experiments to validate and improve these computational models. With increased predictive ability, we gain an understanding of mechanisms of metabolism that are critical in public health and identify potential strategies and interventions. Our efforts in this research area are always guided by clear ethical principles. As we engage in this research, we will make important advances in the health and well-being of society.
Last week we welcomed 102 #COBRA community members from 48 institutions from all across the 🌎 in sunny #Galway for #COBRAcon2022. Thank you all for making this conference a huge success! @ines_thiele @GalwayCMNHS @Pharmabiotic @RyanInstitute @ERC_Research @GalwayBayHotel
@presjimryan The biomedical engineering department is phenomenal!
Important work enabling sex-specific modelling in drug toxicological responses, also addressing the historical underrepresentation of women in clinical studies. @papinsysbio @UVABME #COBRAcon2022
