... are highly trained in several disciplines, but in general they are not considered as specialist for any of them. In case of systems biology, as Steve report, pharmaceutical companies want to recruit hard core mathematicians rather than trained systems biologist for very same argument that multidisciplinary team of mathematicians and biologist can have a ...

... (SIBS, www.sibs.ac.cn), is an exciting hub of several outstanding institutes, centers and laboratories working on different disciplines. Key Laboratory of Systems Biology is one of the leading research institutes for the area of systems biology, computational biology and bioinformatics (www.sysbio.ac.cn) in China.

... skeletal muscle cells and fat cells are altered in people who suffer from insulin resistance - a primary defect in type 2 diabetes and obesity. Taking a systems biology approach, the bioengineers and medical researchers also determined how a common class of drugs for treating insulin resistance - TZDs - alter these same core pathways. This ...

... Really thrilled about it and in a top journal too. Thanks go to Martino for a lot of hard work. Abstract Modern genomics technologies generate huge data sets creating a demand for systems level, experimentally verified, analysis techniques. We examined the transcriptional response to DNA damage in a human T cell line (MOLT4) using microarrays. By measuring both mRNA accumulation and degradation ...

JGrimes Sending students to the anatomy lab to dissect a cadaver in their first week of medical school may be a fading ritual. At Georgetown, students spend a few months in courses called “Physician-Patient Communication” and “Social and Cultural Issues in Health Care” before they start with the cutting — and when they do get to dissection, it’s in a unit on ...
