Research
The Weill Medical College of Cornell University has founded a new institute for computational biology and
biomedicine. The aim is to bring together a critical mass of theorists and experimentalists to tackle the most
challenging questions in systems biology.
In the last decade there have been major technological advances in the field - the development of large scale
methods for recording cellular activity, high throughput tools for monitoring gene expression, rapid screens for
measuring behavioral performance, and powerful mathematic tools (statistical and dynamical systems-based) for
analyzing and interpreting complex datasets. These advances open the door to major scientific discoveries and
conceptual breakthroughs. The Institute's mission is to provide the resources and nurture the collaborative, multi-
disciplinary environment that will make such breakthroughs possible.

The newly endowed ICB is pleased to announce an expansion in the area of computational neuroscience. See jobs for new junior fellow and tenure-track faculty postions.
