Overview
- This book uses the example of regulated exocytosis in pancreatic ß-cells, and it’s relevance to diabetes, to illustrate the major concepts of systems biology, its methods and applications In using a focused approach here by picking one outlook, the topic of Systems Biology is more accessible Systems Biology is a fast moving field, but the work presented here emphasizes the principal aspects of the field, making this a tool for on-going research

Reviews
From the reviews:
“This second volume is Springer’s Systems Biology series focuses on the organisation of pancreatic insulin-producing beta cells, with a particular focus on the technological approaches deemed necessary to further our understanding of beta cell physiology and the pathogenesis of diabetes. … I warmly recommend should be on the shelves of all research laboratories involved in modern beta cell research.” (P. Meda, Diabetologia, Vol. 54, 2011)Editors and Affiliations
