When it comes to developing medicines and advancing the understanding of plant and bacteria behavior, massive biological datasets could be key in finding answers, but researchers need effective ways to analyze the increasing amounts of data.

A new multidisciplinary research center at the University of North Texas is developing computational methods for analyzing and interpreting these large datasets so they can be used to solve pressing problems in biology and medicine.

The Center for Computational Life Sciences (CCLS) is a collaboration between the UNT College of Engineering, the College of Science and the College of Information. It includes 40 affiliated faculty members representing disciplines such as biology, biomedical engineering, computer science, information science and mathematics.
