A research group at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala Universtity.
We have opportunities for a number of MSc thesis students to work with the group in the spring semester 2020. Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming our society. Machine learning models will be in every digital system we use, and it is imperative that we protect the integrity of data owners. In this project we work…

The practical problems that arise when going from simple models to big models include: Most simulation algorithms do not scale well to high dimensions. Simulation can becomes prohibitively expensive due to the multiscale nature of systems. Failure of traditional engineering methodology such as sensitivity analysis and optimization due to high dimensionality, non-linearities and stochasticity…. ……
It is with mixed feelings that we say goodbye to Stefan and Annas. Both have contributed with lots of energy and science to the group, but will now move on. Stefan to a role in industry, and Anass to an assistant professorship at Ecole Centrale Casablanca. You will both be missed, and thank you so…
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming our society. Machine learning models will soon be in every digital system we use. For this reason, there is an urgent need for methods and software that allows for development of state-of-the art ML models while protecting the integrity of data owners . In this project we work on algorithms,…
Biochemical reaction networks represent complex cellular regulatory mechanisms. These networks are typically analyzed using discrete stochastic simulation models. The models typically involve numerous reactions involving a large number of chemical species, governed by highly uncertain parameters. Likelihood-free parameter inference Given existing data pertaining to a biochemical reaction network, one is often interested in inferring the…

We currently have MSc projects available in the area of multicellular systems biology. Interested students are encouraged to contact us to learn more about the opportunities. Msc project in bone remodeling
A new semester has just started, and there is no better way to kick it off than to welcome a new group member! Anass Bouchnita has joined us for to do a postdoc in computational systems biology. He will work on multiscale methods for multicellular modeling and simulation, in a collaboration with Igor Adameyko at…
The SNIC Science Cloud (SSC) team has published a paper in the 2017 conference on IEEE eScience. SNIC Science cloud has been an infrastructure project run by the Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC) with the purpose to assess if and how SNIC should offer cloud infrastructure to the scientific community. The project is now coming…
We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Ben Blamey as a postdoc in the group. Ben will work on our SSF-funded HASTE project, with intelligent systems for setting up and managing information hierarchies in very large volumes of image data from microscopy, read mroe about Ben and the project here: Ben Blamey joins the team to…
We have developed a multiscale method coupling the mesoscopic and microscopic scales. On the mesoscopic scale, systems are modeled as discrete jump processes on a structured or unstructured grid, while on the microscopic scale, molecules are modeled by hard spheres diffusing in continuous space. Microscopic simulations are accurate but computationally expensive. In this paper we…
