Dr. Gregory Valiant's research explores how to extract as much information as possible from data, with a focus on understanding the interplay between the accuracy of the extracted information and various factors such as the amount of available data, the quality/reliability of the data, the amount of memory that is available to process the data, etc. One of the main themes in Dr.

Dr. Grant Rotskoff's research focuses on theoretical and computational approaches to "mesoscale" biophysics. Many of the cellular phenomena that we consider the hallmarks of living systems occur at the scale of hundreds or thousands of proteins. Processes like the self-assembly of organelle-sized structures, the dynamics of cell division, and the transduction of signals from the environment to the machinery of the cell are not macroscopic phenomena—they are the result of a fluctuating, nonequilibrium dynamics.
