Biology is moving from the study of isolated parts to the study of dynamic and integrated systems.
Systems Biology requires interdisciplinary approaches, often putting researchers with different training and cultural background together.
Our purpose is to foster networking in systems biology: to set up international contacts, to enable the exchange of students and faculty, and to share a wide variety of resources for education and research.
This resource is currently maintained by the Duke Center for Systems Biology which is within the Duke Institute for Genome Sciences & Policy. DCSB is one of nine National Centers for Systems Biology in the United States, supported by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences' Systems Biology Initiative.
As part of educational and outreach efforts, it is our mission to increase international collaborative efforts between Systems Biology Centers in the United States and other institutions world wide.
In joint collaboration with The Center for Functional Genomics and Systems Biology at the NYU, the BIMSB has recently launched its new International PhD Program.
