Bioinformatics
HPC scientists integrate large biomedical datasets to extract actionable results. Data scientists and engineers develop new algorithms for machine learning- and artificial intelligence to answer biological problems and facilitate clinical decision making. Therefore, HPC engages with academic partners and industry to transform new findings into eminent societal benefits.

Principal Investigators
HPC Principal Investigators are outstanding scientists with a proven track record in their respective fields and the ambition to make a difference in biomedicine, harnessing engineering and informatics tools. They are interdisciplinary by nature, highly collaborative, and committed to drive a globally competitive research program.

Benjamin Engel
Structural Cell Biology
Ben's group explores the molecular architecture of organelles by using cryo-electron tomography to directly image macromolecules within the native cellular environment.

Na Cai
Translational Genetics Group
Na Cai’s research group focuses on understanding the etiology of neuropsychiatric conditions, with a particular focus on Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).

Boyan Bonev
3D Genome & Molecular Neurobiology
Boyan's team deciphers the genetic and epigenetic blueprints of brain development and evolution, thereby unravelling new paradigms at the interplay of transcription factors, chromatin topology and the control of gene expression in vivo.
