Abstract
Mathematics's role in the grand challenge of deciphering the molecular basis of life.
Highlights
Biochemistry, the field that studies biomolecules and their relation to life, is a primary beneficiary of the flood of data that is emerging from the new technologies that allow us to observe biological systems at spatial and temporal scales never achieved before
The dynamics of biomolecular systems occurs over a large range of time scales
Thermal fluctuations for example occur in the femtosecond-topicosecond time scale, while tumbling occurs in the nano second time range
Summary
Biochemistry, the field that studies biomolecules and their relation to life, is a primary beneficiary of the flood of data that is emerging from the new technologies that allow us to observe biological systems at spatial and temporal scales never achieved before. Most of the data are fragmented and only pertain to either a static vision of biology, or provide information on dynamics over a limited time scale. The dynamics of biomolecular systems occurs over a large range of time scales.
