ABOUT THE LAB


The UCLA Biocybernetics Laboratory was founded in 1966 by Prof. J. J. DiStefano, III. Research in the laboratory is interdisciplinary, involving integration of theoretical biomodeling and biosystems approaches with experimental laboratory techniques in physiology, pharmacology and related biomedical fields. The pedagogy involves development and exploitation of the synergistic and methodologic interface between modeling and laboratory experimentation, with a focus on integrated approaches for solving complex biosystem problems from sparse biodata. Current projects and areas of research guidance include:

The Biocybernetics lab also provides training to undergraduates motivated toward biosystems modeling and experimental research, via the UCLA Student Research Program (SRP), and the Interdepartmental Cybernetics Major in the College of Letters and Science.
