MaBS - The Mathematics and BioSciences Group


This is the home page of the Mathematics and Biosciences Group at the Faculty of Mathematics and the Max F. Perutz Laboratories of the University of Vienna.

Our research interest is the mathematical and computational analysis of evolutionary processes, on the molecular, genetic and ecological level.

New joint Master's program in Evolutionary Systems Biology

The University of Vienna and the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna now offer a joint Master's program in 'Evolutionary Systems Biology'.
The program's students will
  • Learn how to understand and handle modern “- omics” data sets.
  • Develop key computational skills and delve into biological modelling.
  • Combine experimental “wet-lab” technologies with quantitative “dry-lab” methods.
  • Apply these skills to questions arising from evolutionary biology, development, comparative genomics, and systems biology.
