- Leroy Hood, lead developer of DNA sequencing technology and
more recently founder of the
Institute for Systems
Biology, discusses the focus of his organization in an
interview. Systems biology studies all elements of a biological
system -- DNA, RNA, proteins, information pathways, and information
networks -- in order to understand the system as a whole, using
computer analysis and mathematical modeling to describe the
structure and behavior of the system.
