Teaser
Access to competence in mathematical modelling may be a major hindrance for employing a systems biology approach in many research projects. Very commonly, the most successful systems biology studies are based on collaborations between experimentalists, contributing with the biological questions and experimental data and theoreticians, who contribute with skills in modelling, simulation and prediction. Collaboration across disciplines is not a trivial enterprise and very commonly requires skills to communicate across borders. This challenge, as well as the mere availability of matching theoreticians locally may prevent in many cases the integration of modelling and prediction into projects even if the interdisciplinary approaches offer great potential.”
