Genes, Neurons, and The Internet Found to Have Organizing Principles – Some Identical

06.11.2002
People and Events›People
How do 30,000 genes in our DNA work together to form a large part of who we are? How do one hundred billion neurons operate in our brain?  The huge number of factors involved makes such complex networks hard to crack. Now, a study published in the October 25 issue of Science uncovers a strategy for finding the organizing principles of virtually any network – from neural networks to ecological food webs or the Internet.
