  1. A C2B2 Activity! A Systems and Structural Biology approach to the dissection of complex biological phenotypes Perhaps surprisingly, a concise definition of systems biology that most of us Can agree upon has yet to emerge. (Ruedi Aebersold, Faculty Member ISB)

  2. MAGNet: Organization Contacted Alfonso Valencia, Dafne Koller, and Soren Brunak to join the SAB

  3. MAGNet Mission • To study the organization of the complex networks of biochemical interactions whose concerted activity determines cellular processes at increasing levels of granularity. • To provide an integrative computational framework to organize molecular interactions in the cell into manageable context dependent components. • To develop interoperable computational models and tools that can leverage such a map of cellular interactions to elucidate important biological processes and to address a variety of biomedical applications.
