DESCRIPTION:Feedback control is ubiquitous across biological systems: it pr
 ovides robustness to uncertainty in the environment\, enables adaptation\,
  and can alter the speed or stability of a system’s response. Rapid adva
 nces in experimental methods\, computational power\, and control theory ar
 e now creating unprecedented opportunities in the emerging field of biolog
 ical control\, where investigators seek to establish principles for the de
 sign and control of biological systems arising from a growing convergence 
 between the engineering principles of feedback control and the diverse arr
 ay of self-regulating systems in biology.\n\nThe Graduate Training Program
  in Biological Feedback Control is an NSF-funded Research Traineeship (NRT
 ) that will equip PhD students with the knowledge and skills needed to dec
 ipher the rules of biological feedback control and to harness those rules 
 to control and synthesize natural\, engineered\, and biohybrid systems. St
 udents will be trained in methods for modeling feedback control\, analyzin
 g how biological systems implement control in natural contexts\, and ident
 ifying opportunities for novel designs.\n\nLearn more about the NRT progra
