Historical Perspective Perspective Reviews Feedback
This issue focuses on the potential applications of systems biology to biotechnology. Although at this stage, most models of biological systems are rather rudimentary, the proliferation of high-throughput technologies for gathering data on a large scale is spurring efforts to describe and predict the functioning of entire systems applicable to drug discovery, industrial biotechnology and other sectors.
