SUMMARY:What lies behind (the data)? Some approaches to theory in biology 
 - Professor Jeremy Gunawardena (Harvard University)

CONTACT:Dr. Adrien Hallou
DESCRIPTION:Biology has a long tradition of developing concepts and models
  from data and the current explosion of biological data has attracted math
 ematical and computational scientists to the challenge. In this talk\, I w
 ill suggest that there may also be another role for mathematical theory\, 
 in formulating an integrated conceptual understanding that is independent 
 of particular experimental methods and data. I will discuss some of the th
 eoretical challenges that arise in trying to get behind the data\, illustr
 ating this with work from our lab on eukaryotic gene regulation.
