Brainy Robot Gets an “A” in Biology, Vanderbilt University Study

Engineers have demonstrated for the first time that a computer can take raw experimental data and solve a complex biological modeling problem from scratch. The research is published online in the journal Physical Biology and is a collaboration between John P. Wikswo, professor of living state physics at Vanderbilt University, Michael Schmidt and Hod Lipson at Cornell University, and Jerry Jenkins and Ravishankar Vallabhajosyula at CFD Research Corp. in Huntsville, Ala.
