Theoretical Systems Biology
Christoph Kaleta (Group Leader)
The Kaleta lab has expertise in the integrative analysis of large-scale OMICs datasets in the context of metabolic networks. Main areas of work include the reconstruction of metabolic networks of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, analysis of proteomic as well as transcriptomic datasets using tools from constraint-based modeling as well as dynamic optimization, the identification of novel metabolic pathways and the inference of transcriptional networks from expression data.
