Signal Processing for Systems Biology (SPSB), in Tampere University of Technology

The research team, Signal Processing for Systems Biology (SPSB), involves three local research groups at TUT/ISP: the Computational Systems Biology group led by Prof. Olli Yli-Harja, the Computational Neuroscience group led by Dr. Marja-Leena Linne, and the Data Modelling group led by Prof. Jaakko Astola. The research team has currently 27 members. It will be a part of Academy Centre of Excellence in 2006-2011.

Our main research goal is to develop novel signal processing methods that can be applied in modern systems biology. We mainly concentrate on studying the structure and dynamics of biosystems, but also contribute to modelling of novel biosystem measurement technologies. With the term "biosystem", we refer to interacting cell populations, as well as cell and molecular biological systems, e.g. intracellular molecular pathways.

The reseach team has four main research directions: (i) theory of nonlinear signal processing applied in modelling of biosystems, (ii) models of biosystem measurement technologies, (iii) discrete large-scale models of biosystems, and (iv) modelling of biological data.
