Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM)

This semester program brings together mathematicians, statisticians, computer scientists, and experimental biologists to address the challenges involved in genome-scale phylogenetic inference. An overarching goal is to unite biologically-sound modeling with algorithms that can be implemented in a computationally tractable manner and that scale as both the number of species and the amount of genetic data increase. Specific topics to be investigated include: theory and practice of model-based inference for trees and networks, combinatorial and algebraic approaches for inferring phylogenies, software and algorithm development for inference and visualization, Bayesian approaches to phylogenetic inference, models for phylogenetic diversity and node dating, and methods for assessing model fit.

The progress in understanding genes and genomes has given a boost to the use of synthetic DNA for biological and technological applications. Synthetic nucleic acids play a central role in synthetic biology and in emerging therapeutic paradigms, e.g., genome editing and nucleic acid vaccines. DNA-based data storage is making significant progress, and thanks to its extreme data-density, its high durability and its timelessness, it is promising to be the next standard for data archival systems. Synthetic biology and the use of synthetic DNA for information storage applications bring important algorithmic and data analysis challenges. In synthetic biology, reagent and assay design are often driven by algorithmic approaches. Novel synthesis technologies offer cost-reduction by several orders of magnitude at the cost of increased error-rate, raising new coding-theoretic questions. This Dagstuhl Seminar aims to bring together leading biologists, chemists, engineers, computer/data scientists, and theoreticians working on synthetic biology and on DNA-based data storage, to enable joint work in small groups leading to discussing and exploring recent advancements and current challenges.
