YANG Laboratory¶
About Us¶
We are an interdisciplinary team with diverse backgrounds that bridge the realms of physics and biology. Our enthusiasm lies in integrating tools and concepts from Biophysics, Systems and Synthetic Biology, Mechanobiology, and Engineering to pursue a quantitative comprehension of complex stochastic cellular and developmental processes. Learn more about who we are (via the People page) and what we do (explore our Research and Social activities and try out the Software we developed).
Join Us!
The Yang lab is affiliated with various programs at the University of Michigan: Biophysics, Physics, Applied Physics, Complex Systems, BME, Bioinformatics, CDB, CMB. See also our current Affiliations page.
