Entropy Stress and Scaling of Vital Organs over Life Span Based on Allometric Laws
Entropy, 2012 : Past theories on total lifetime energy expenditures and entropy generation in biological systems (BS) dealt with whole systems, but the recent literature suggests that the total metabolic rate of a BS,q̇body (W) is a sum of product of specific

Designing biological systems [PDF]
Genes & Development, 2007 The design of artificial biological systems and the understanding of their natural counterparts are key objectives of the emerging discipline of synthetic biology. Toward both ends, research in synthetic biology has primarily focused on the construction of simple devices, such as transcription-based oscillators and switches.
