Interdisciplinary Visions Past and Present: An Homage to The Biological Computer Laboratory in the IGB
The Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology (IGB) hosted figures related to the historic Biological Computer Laboratory (BCL) in December 2016. Those in attendance were past students, instructors, and associates of the BCL, who continue to see their current work and research as connected to the lab’s legacy in cybernetics. The visit was an occasion to celebrate the interdisciplinary nature of the research-based collaborations, both during the lab’s energetic activity during the 1960s and 70s counterculture and now.
