from the preaching-to-the-choir dept. Harvard announced today its creation of a Department of Systems Biology (DSB), with the goal of understanding how molecular biology builds up to cells and eventually into an entire organism. "As we understand more about the tiniest pieces that we are made of, it becomes increasingly clear that we do not understand how they work together as systems," says Marc Kirschner, PhD, the first chair of the new department. "We need to build on the foundation of molecular biology to construct an understanding of the architecture of the cell and how cells cooperate across organ systems, with a predictive model of physiology as the ultimate goal." | ?> ? |
