Welcome to the website of the Professorship of Bioinformatics at TUM Campus Straubing for Biotechnology and Sustainability
The research lab conducts research in the field of bioinformatics and machine learning, focusing on the development of statistical and machine learning methods to better understand complex biological systems, their functioning and biochemical properties. For this purpose, the lab works on methods to detect genotype-phenotype relationships and to extract phenotypic features from imaging data. These methods have applications in genetics, precision medicine, and precision agriculture. An emerging area of research is the development of artificial intelligence to solve problems in life sciences and chemistry without including specific prior knowledge.
