Sep 19, 2005

Researchers report that their computer model accurately predicts particular behaviors of living cells.

“Our computational approach revealed how the same set of proteins produce physiologically different outputs in response to only subtly different inputs,” explained Alexander Hoffmann, an assistant professor of chemistry and biochemistry, who led the team.
