Robert F. Murphy, Director

The Lane Center for Computational Biology at Carnegie Mellon University seeks to realize the potential of machine learning for expanding our understanding of complex biological systems. A primary goal of the center is to develop computational tools that will enable automated creation of detailed, predictive models of biological processes, including automated experiment design and data acquisition. We anticipate that these efforts will not only lead to deep biological knowledge but also to tools for individualized diagnosis and treatment of disease. The Lane Center builds on the strong history of computational and interdisciplinary research at Carnegie Mellon.

Faculty Openings in Computational Biology

Applications are no longer being accepted for this year, but will be accepted again in the Fall.

Lane Fellows in Computational Biology

These highly-paid postdoctoral fellowships will enable outstanding recent doctoral recipients to carry out computational biology research in the environment at Carnegie Mellon. Candidates for the Lane Fellowships must be nominated by a faculty member from their Ph.D.-granting institution. The 2008 Fellows will be announced shortly. Nominations for 2009 Fellows must be received by October 1, 2008.
