The Laboratory for Biological Modeling Analysis and System Simulation (BioMASS Lab) was established in 2006 by Dr. Luis F. RodrÃguez in the Department of Agricultural & Biological Engineering at the University of Illinois. The BioMASS laboratory specializes in biological system modeling, simulation, and analysis. We have worked on a wide variety of systems at different scales ranging from microscale ecosystems associated with denitrification to macroscale life support systems for future space missions to integrated crop and livestock farms to regional bioenergy feedstock production systems and agricultural watersheds.
