The Role of Theory in Biology: Little Impact Thus Far<br />
Sydney Brenner<br />
Princeton University 2003:<br />
The Watson Lecture: Biology in the Era of Complete Genomes<br />
ETH Zürich 2006:<br />
Pauli-Vorlesung: Theoretical Biology in the Next Decade<br />
The close interplay between theory, modeling, and experiment has dominated<br />
many other branches of science, particularly physics and astrophysics,<br />
but it had little impact on biology until now.<br />
I used to refer to the Journal of Theoretical Biology as the cure to insomnia.<br />
No longer will I be able to say that. The genome and its vast accumulation of data<br />
have the potential to change all of that by opening the doors for scientists with<br />
more analytical and theoretical bents.
