Network Analysis to (Improve Stem) Cell Differentiation

Background Stem cells are a type of cells that can differentiate into other cell types as well as self-renew, which makes them of interest for many different medical applications. Please read https://stemcells.nih.gov/info/basics/stc-basics for a basic introduction to stem cells. The field of systems biology focuses on investigating complex biological processes instead of single entities, which often focuses on computationally modeling and analyzing the data as networks/ graphs. Such networks are for example protein protein interaction networks, regulation network or gene gene co-expression networks. ...
