Summit on Systems Biology, June 15-17, 2011
I attended the Summit on Systems Biology hosted by Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA June 15-17. So, judging from the talks given, what is systems biology? Systems biology is non-linear and/or multi-step. Heavy math does not make something systems biology if...
Insights gained from influenza genomic sequence data: viral diversity within human populations
The advent of large amounts of influenza genomic sequence data produced by the Influenza Genome Sequencing Project (IGSP) has led to new concepts regarding influenza viral diversity. It was previously believed that a single influenza lineage entered a human population at the start of an...
