Most of Vlad's research is focused on age-related neurodegenerative disorders and fundamentals of aging and the molecular mechanisms underpinning those phenomena. He considers mass spectrometry-based proteomics as a key tool in his research. The richness of the mass spectrometry data and complexity...
In general, I am interested in studying complex systems by integrating both mechanism-based and data-driven approaches, in order to understand their dynamics, evolution, control, and design. The ultimate goal is to understand (some of) the design principles of complex systems, whether it is physical...
