For the past half-century, biologists have been uncovering details of countless molecular events. Linking these data to dynamic models requires new software and data standards, argue Marvin Cassman and his colleagues.
The field of systems biology is lurching forwards, propelled by a mixture of faith, hope and even charity. But if it is to become a true discipline, several problems with core infrastructure (data and software) need to be addressed.
