1. Dynamics in Random Boolean Networks
Abstract : There are many examples of complex networks in science. It can be genetic regulation in living cells, computers on the Internet, or social and economic networks. In this context, Boolean networks provide simplistic models that are relatively easy to handle using computer simulations and mathematical methods. READ MORE

2. Functional association networks for disease gene prediction
Abstract : Mapping of the human genome has been instrumental in understanding diseasescaused by changes in single genes. However, disease mechanisms involvingmultiple genes have proven to be much more elusive. Their complexityemerges from interactions of intracellular molecules and makes them immuneto the traditional reductionist approach. READ MORE

3. Modeling of Protein Folding and Genetic Networks
Abstract : Models for potein folding are developed and applied to peptides and small proteins with both α-helix and β-sheet structure. The energy functions, in which effective hydrophobicity forces and hydrogen bonds are taken to be the two central terms, are sequence-based and deliberately kept simple. READ MORE

4. Dynamics and Performance of a Linear Genetic Programming System
Abstract : Genetic Programming (“GP”) is a machine learning algorithm. Typically, Genetic Programming is a supervised learning algorithm, which trains on labeled training examplesprovided by the user. The solution output by GP maps known attributes to the known labels. READ MORE

5. Hybrid sterility and genetic incompatibilities in Ficedula flycatchers
Abstract : Although the theory behind the mechanisms generating intrinsic post-zygotic isolation is well established, very few concrete examples of genetic incompatibilities have been described, especially in vertebrates. Consequently, our understanding of the evolutionary forces shaping the appearance of genetic incompatibilities between natural populations and the overall role of genetic incompatibilities in the speciation process is limited.
