The Challenges Facing Systemic Approaches in Biology: An Interview with Kunihiko Kaneko

Interviewed by Kumar Selvarajoo and Masa Tsuchiya at Institute for Advanced Biosciences, Keio University, Japan, I discuss my approach to biology, what I call complex systems biology. The approach is constructive in nature, and is based on dynamical systems theory and statistical physics. It is inte...

description Interviewed by Kumar Selvarajoo and Masa Tsuchiya at Institute for Advanced Biosciences, Keio University, Japan, I discuss my approach to biology, what I call complex systems biology. The approach is constructive in nature, and is based on dynamical systems theory and statistical physics. It is intended to understand universal characteristics of life systems; generic adaptation under noise, differentiation from stem cells in interacting cells, robustness and plasticity in evolution, and so forth. Current status and future directions in systems biology in Japan are also discussed.
