Plant Evolution and Biodiversity
Head: N. N.
We study interactions between plant parasites, their hosts, and the abiotic environment using experimental-genetic and evolutionary-ecological methods to understand the feedback loops driving parasite-host-environment adaptation. The lab develops resources to identify pests from environmental samples and engages in forest genetics research. We also actively commit to the conservation of native plants through citizen science projects.

Collective Information Processing
Head: Prof. Pawel Romanczuk
We investigate the interplay of self-organization and function in complex biological systems by combining mathematical modeling and analysis of experimental data. Our main research focus are mechanisms and functional benefits of collective behavior from cellular ensembles to animal groups. Further topics include modeling of stochastic motility and spatially-explicit evolutionary games.
