Molecular Systems and Synthetic Biology

High throughput data and computational methods and their application in the construction and testing the models of cell and organism behaviour; How the resultant networks, webs and pathways of interactions and reactions produce system properties that cannot be predicted from the study of the individual molecular components; Network properties such as emergence, robustness and modular convergent design principles and their role in synthesizing molecules, cells and organisms with novel properties for medical use and for biotechnology, and other relevant applications.
