title: MicroRNAs and gene regulatory networks: managing the impact of noise in biological systems.
abstract: Biological systems are continuously challenged by an environment that is variable. Yet, a key feature of developmental and physiological processes is their remarkable stability. This review considers how microRNAs contribute to gene regulatory networks that confer robustness.
