Biology Systems Specialist
Description
Systems biology is a discipline that emerged around the year 2000. It is based on the study of an organism or biological system, seen as an integrated and interrelated system of genes, proteins and biochemical reactions that result in biological processes. Instead of analysing the individual components of an organism, systems biology specialists focus on all components and their interactions as part of a single system, the biology of the organism. Nearly any biological process can be studied by systems biology, such as, for example, the growth of a cell, the interaction between two bacteria and the blood circulation in an organism. Systems biology specialists are responsible for reconstructing and modelling the different networks of molecular interaction that occur within a biological system or process in order to find emerging properties of biomedical and biotechnological interest.
