From an early incarnation of the website:
http://www.sysbio.de
What is Systems Biology?
The emerging area of systems biology is a whole-istic approach to understanding biology.
It aims at system-level understanding of biology, and to understand biological systems as a system.
What was that rule we learned in grade school? When you’re defining a word or term, avoid using the word itself in the definition? (Thanks, Mrs. Thomas!)
