Inspiration
Systems biology: an inter-disciplinary field of study that focuses on complex interactions within biological systems, using a more holistic perspective…instead of the more traditional reductionism (thanks Wikster!)
Reductionism
vs holism…?

Food for thought…
• Identify strengths as a researcher and make good use of them.
• In the post-genomic era - collaborate or croak!
• Publish your first year literature review.
• Supervisors/lab heads to enable students/staff to seek out inter and cross-institutional collaboration.
• Is generalising a speciality?
• Has the dawning of a golden age of systems biology necessitated new roles for generalists who can sit in the space between coders, statisticians, clinicians, molecular biologists et al.?
