Computational biology involves the use of models and algorithms to identify, characterize, and design biological systems. MITRE is building computational biology methods, tools, and infrastructure to help address critical national challenges related to detecting biological threats, evaluating unknown organisms, and identifying the provenance of biological products. Through advanced prediction and modeling capabilities, our computational biology infrastructure further enables characterization of molecular interactions that drive cellular processes, including those associated with medical countermeasures and biosensing applications.
