Complex Systems is a journal devoted to the science, mathematics and engineering of systems with simple components but complex overall behavior. It is concerned with identifying and characterizing common design elements that are observed across diverse natural, technological and social complex systems.
The study of inherited genomic variation through genome wide association studies (GWAS) promised to provide key biologic insight into common diseases of public health significance such as obe...
SMRT Sequencing is a DNA sequencing technology characterized by long read lengths and high consensus accuracy, regardless of the sequence complexity or GC content of the DNA sample. These cha...
Many computational approaches exist for predicting the effects of amino acid substitutions from protein sequence. These are often (incorrectly) used for judging disease predisposition from in...
