Systems Biology Ireland (SBI) combines both experimental and computational research under one roof giving rise to a vibrant and productive interdisciplinary culture. Since its inception in 2009 SBI has grown to comprise >70 staff from >20 different nations producing ~1 publication per week in highly ranked journals including Nature, Cell, Molecular Cell, Cell Reports, Nature Cell Biology, Nature Biotechnology. SBI was rated amongst the top 5 Systems Biology Institutes worldwide by an international peer review panel in November 2014.
SBI develops new precision oncology approaches based on predictive computational modelling. For this we use modern omics technologies to map the components of biological and biochemical networks, and computational modelling to reconstruct these networks and analyse their properties. The resulting predictive models are then personalised using patient data and used for the accurate stratification of patients and for designing personalised therapies.
