COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY RESEARCH:
Physiologists at Dartmouth investigate the dynamic character of heart rate variability and quantitatively model cardiorespiratory control mechanisms. They develop computer simulations of ion channel kinetics and use mathematical models to evaluate the dynamics of membrane receptors.
Faculty working in the Computational Biology area:
Darnall (also systems neuroscience, and respiratory and sleep physiology)
Daubenspeck (also cardiovascular, respiratory and sleep physiology)
Henderson (also cell signalling, molecular endocrinology, and cell and molecular neuroscience)
Leiter (also systems and cell & molecular neuroscience, and respiratory physiology)
