Expertise
Kim Sneppen is in charge of the Center for Models of Life at the Niels Bohr Institute, a research place that has a long tradition for basic research in physics. The Center for Models of Life is a center of excellence founded by the Danish National research council, with the goal to investigate physical and informational processes in living systems. The Center is theoretical, and activity involves building of simple conceptual models of biological processes, using close collaborations with molecular biologists.
