Georgia Tech is a partner in a new $25M NSF Science and Technology Center focusing on Emergent Behaviors of Integrated Cellular Systems (EBICS). This center involves an interdisciplinary team of investigators from Georgia Tech, the Massachussetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. These investigators, including Yuhong Fan (Assistant Professor, Biology), will study the behaviors of cells and cell clusters with the ultimate goal to design and build biological systems or machines. The Fan lab will investigate the epigenetic regulation of differentiating cells and cell clusters of designed biological modules.
