Cancer cells often manage to evade drug treatments. Systems biologist Chris Sander creates computational models to predict their game and develop effective therapies.

Machine learning helps designing better drugs against cancer. Biophysicist John Chodera knows how: He uses computational tools to accelerate therapy discovery.

Genes and the environment play an important role in the development of the human brain. Neuroscientist Zoltán Molnár studies a transient cell type that helps to build early neural circuits.
