title: Systems biology: new institute and applications.
abstract: The Yale Systems Biology Institute (YSBI) sponsored its first symposium at the university's West Campus in October 2010. The symposium served to provide Yale's scientific community with a glimpse into the wide range of research at the forefront of this interdisciplinary field. YSBI was conceived less than a year ago, and the event was the perfect forum for its debut, both at Yale and in the U.S. scientific community. This article includes a brief overview of the different topics presented at the symposium, followed by a discussion of the advantages and challenges of practical application of systems biology.
