System Biology quick links

(via Pierre) BMC System Biology has published their first papers. More or less at the same time the new Systems and Synthetic Biology (published by Springer Netherlands) has started publishing papers. These two journals join IEE Systems Biology and Molecular Systems Biology (Nature/EMBO) as forums to publish works on Systems and Synthetic Biology. All journals (with the exception of IEE Systems Biology) publish in open access or at least (in the case of Systems and Synthetic Biology) offer an open access option.

Here is a nice talk from Alfonso Valencia talking about species co-evolution and a very promising improvement to a sequence based method to predict protein-protein interactions:
