Tomás Pérez-Acle

As an academic and researcher, Dr. Perez-Acle has a fruitful career, harvesting the results of a transdisciplinary approach in Computational Biology. His research topics include computational biophysics to study the properties of the electrical synapse in neurons mediated by connexin-based channels; the development of new artificial intelligence algorithms based on neuromorphic architecture and their use to dissect the retinal coding in mammals; the development and expansion of a parallel computational platform for stochastic modeling of complex biological phenomena using rules and agents; new mathematical methods for the inference, characterization and dynamics of complex biological networks and information as a modulator of human behavior.
