Abstract
Projects on biologically-inspired computing would involve implementing algorithms and/or modelling and simulating architectures to replicate the computational capabilities of biological systems, and analysing their performance.
Prerequisites:
A strong analytical background and programming experience. The Executable Biology course would be useful, but not essential. An interest in biological systems would help.
