Publication: Fundamental Issues in Systems Biology

Date Released: 29 November 2005



Systems biology seeks to build on the spectacular data sets produced by genomics and proteomics to develop an understanding of the function of biological systems.

In a paper in this month's BioEssays, Egenis Visiting Research Fellow Maureen O'Malley and Egenis Director John Dupré argue that "clearly identifying and conceptualising the system under investigation in any particular research project is an important philosophical dimension of systems biology and integral to the success of the science". A review on the Faculty of 1000 website, a online literature awareness tool for the biological sciences, rates the paper as "Exceptional". Read more about this research.
