UCIrvine Center for Complex Biological Systems

Fueled by explosive advances in the technology for collecting quantitative, comprehensive data, biologists and biomedical scientists have become engaged in a search for new, more systematic ways to organize and understand the living world. Engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, physicists and chemists have come together with traditional biologists to forge a new field, Systems Biology, in which life is viewed from the perspectives of complex systems, networks, devices and design principles.
