Dr. Pan-Jun Kim is developing a quantitative framework for unraveling collective dynamics of biological systems, aided by mathematical modeling and statistical data analysis. Recent technologies have generated enormous amount of biological data at various scales. Computational methodologies developed in mathematics, physics, computer science, and engineering enable analyses of such data, allowing scientists to gain insights that will bring leaps in fundamental understanding of complex biological processes. Specifically, Dr. Kim’s interest covers the predictive computational modeling of (i) global microbial ecosystems inside human body and (ii) various metabolic, regulatory, and signaling networks inside/between cells, and (iii) cross-disciplinary big data analysis.
