The Sales Lab

Gabriele Sales picture
The Sales laboratory investigates novel computational methods for the analysis of high throughput biological experiments. The research group combines approaches from computer science, statistics and systems biology to dissect the behavior of non‑model organisms and the mechanisms of complex diseases.
