Welcome to the Gore Laboratory website!

We use microbial model systems to study

fundamental questions in biophysics,

systems biology and evolutionary dynamics.

The laboratory is composed of an

interdisciplanary group of physicists,

biologists, chemists, engineers, and others

interested in learning from each other

to effectively combine experiments,

theory and modeling.

We started September 1, 2009 in the MIT Physics Department and are now looking for members. If you are interested please send me an email!
