From evolutionary information to biophysical annotation

We develop the computational methods to integrate information theory with molecular biophysics, to bridge length and time scales, and to finally understand molecular and systems evolution by computational means.
"Nichts ist so praktisch wie eine gute Theorie.", Kurt Lewin (founder of modern socialpsychology) -- loosely translated: "There is nothing as practical as a good theory."
