Rosemary Braun is an Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Biosciences at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on living systems governed by complex networks of molecular interactions, which involve hundreds or thousands of interacting elements. These systems are finely tuned to produce precise biological effects, are robust enough to tolerate intrinsic and extrinsic variability, and are flexible enough to adapt to environmental changes. Through the Braun Lab, she develops and applies powerful mathematical and computational techniques to investigate living systems at multiple scales—from atomic and gene levels to systems and tissue/organismal levels, finally examining population dynamics. Her work often involves close collaboration with experimentalists and clinicians to address pressing biomedical questions, particularly those related to circadian disruption and cancer. Braun's contributions are significant at the intersection of mathematics, computation, and biology, striving to advance the understanding of how macroscopic phenotypes emerge from the complex interplay of microscopic interactions.
