The increasing use of methods from mathematics, computer science and theoretical physics in the exploration of biological systems is one of the hallmarks of today's science. This is due to great advances in the understanding of living systems, the establishment of new experimental techniques providing large amounts data, methodological advances in mathematical modelling, and the continuing growth in available computer power for numerical calculations and simulations.
The research group in Computational Biology (Beregningsorientert biologi) at Department of Mathematical Sciences and Technology ( Institutt for matematiske realfag og teknologi) at Norwegian University of Life Sciences ( Universitetet for miljø- og biovitenskap) was established in 2005. This research group is one of three research groups targeted in the departmental strategic plan to achieve an internationally standing. The research group collaborates closely with other groups locally, nationally and internationally. In particular we collaborate with other groups on campus, for example Centre for Integrative Genetics (CIGENE), to form a strong, comprehensive research and learning environment in computational biology at UMB.
The three main research fields of our group is Computational neuroscience, Imaging with environmental and life science applications, and Dynamics of complex biological systems.
