Research
Interdisciplinary by design and boundary-pushing in nature, research at The BioFrontiers Institute is broadly organized around several key themes.
Key Research Areas
Discovering the mechanisms driving tissue functional erosion and innovating clinical preventions of decline.
Using computational, statistical, and mathematical approaches to extract meaning from large sets of biological data and to model complex systems.
Combating the threat of infectious diseases and parasites by examination of human viruses, epidemiological modeling, vaccine development, and discovery of parasitic mechanisms.
Leveraging insights from healthy healing processes to engineer medical solutions that repair and restore damaged tissue.
Building an interdisciplinary, collaborative community through the Crnic Institute Boulder Branch, which investigates co-morbidities occurring with Trisomy 21 to improve the lives of people with Down Syndrome.
