We have all this data and knowledge about proteins and their interactions - it’s even organized in a pretty map .... but so what? what does it all mean?
- Dir Research
We must move beyond the static view of cell signaling networks. The proteins don't know what they are supposed to be doing, and the real system is a living entity whose apparent layout is a consequence of dynamic behavior
- Biology Researcher
Turning all of this data into real knowledge is the critical challenge in biology today.
- VP (Discovery Research)
What we call "biology" is the emergent property of a vast number of simple molecular interactions and transformations. Understanding biological systems requires the ability to study these interactions as part of one system.
- Professor of Systems Biology
Cell signaling is too complicated a subject to be completely explored by any single researcher or laboratory. Collaboration will be key if real progress is to be made in this field.
