As we live through the consolidation of a new paradigm where experimental data goes hand in hand with computational analysis, we contemplate the challenge of fusing these two aspects of the new biology into a consistent theoretical framework. Whether systems biology will survive as a field or be washed away by the tides of future fads will ultimately depend on its success to achieve this type of synthesis. The famous quote attributed to Kurt Lewin comes to mind: "there is nothing more practical than a good theory". This book presents a wide assortment of articles on systems biology in an attempt to capture the variety of current methods in systems biology and show how they can help to find answers to the challenges of modern biology. 610 $aBiotechnology 610 $aSynthetic Biology 610 $amathematical modeling 610 $aBiochemical systems theory 610 $aSystems Medicine 610 $acomputational modeling 610 $aSystems Biology 610 $abiological networks 700 $aJulio Vera$4auth$01281235 702 $aAlberto Marin-Sanguino$4auth 702 $aRui Alves$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910345964803321 996 $aFoundations of Theoretical Approaches in Systems Biology$93018405 997 $aUNINA
