From network to system( nced Studies in Princeton USA for many...)

nced Studies in Princeton, USA for many years, and has been a professor of mathematics at the University of Bielefeld since 1969. Dress was a visiting scientist at many renowned universities and research institutes worldwide and is co-editor of seven international professional journals. In addition, Dress has been a visiting scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig since 2003. His current research interests include phylogenetic combinatorics, molecular evolution and the use of topological methods in proteomics and computational chemistry.

Prof. Li Jin (born in 1963) studied genetics at Fudan University in Shanghai, obtained his doctorate in biomedical science/genetics at the University of Texas in Houston, USA in 1994, and was a post doc fellow in the medical genetics program at Stanford University School of Medicine (under Prof. L.L. Cavalli-Sforza) until 1996. Prof. Jin has been a full professor at the University of Cincinnati, USA since 2001, and Director of the Center for Anthropological Studies at Fudan University in Shanghai, China. In addition, Prof. Lin acted as a consultant to a number of American biotechnology companies. He is co-editor of several international professional journals. His main fields of work are human and medical genetics, population genetics and genetic anthropology, as well as genomics and bioinformatics.

Institute Organization

The Partner Institute will comprise three departments and several junior research groups, and will be legally and administratively integrated into the campus of the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences (SIBS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). At the same time, it will exhibit key structural features of a Max Planck Institute especially with a view to ensuring the high quality of the scientific work. Another central task for the Institute will be the interdisciplinary training of junior scientists in the field of biomathematics.
