Mathematical analysis of metabolic networks
Although its important reaction sequences and cycles have been known for more than 25 years, we are still far from a satisfactory theory of intermediary metabolism. The empirical material is overwhelming and increases every year, but the development of a general conception is still in its infancy, although the conceptual progress of recent years has ...

Diabetes Therapeutics Beyond Hyperglycaemia: Toward Biological Systems Redesign
Diabetes pharmacology has historically been dominated by a glucose-centric framework in which therapeutic efficacy is defined primarily by reduction in blood glucose and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c).

Evolution at the Origins of Life?
The role of evolutionary theory at the origin of life is an extensively debated topic. The origin and early development of life is usually separated into a prebiotic phase and a protocellular phase, ultimately leading to the Last Universal Common ...
