About us

CBIB

The Center for Bioinformatics and Integrative Biology (CBIB), hosted at the Faculty of Biological Sciences at University Andres Bello in Santiago, Chile, is composed by an interdisciplinary team, and its main objective is to develop research strategies that combine the benefits of theoretical estimations and experimental validation.

Through this integrated approach, CBIB generates an iterative cycle of research, based on observation, modeling, simulation and experimental validation, to finally contribute to the development of solutions to biological, medical and biotecnological problems that affect everyday life.
