In this work we present a new methodology for structure and parameter estimation in cell systems biology modelling. Our modelling framework is based on P systems, an unconventional computational paradigm that abstracts from the structure and functioning of the living cell. The process of designing models, consisting of both the optimisation of...

Cellular systems present a highly complex organization at different scales including the molecular, cellular and colony levels. The complexity at each one of these levels is tightly interrelated. Integrative systems biology aims to obtain a deeper understanding of cellular systems by focusing on the systemic and systematic integration of the...

This paper proposes a new methodology for the automated design of cell models for systems and synthetic biology. Our modelling framework is based on P systems, a discrete, stochastic and modular formal modelling language. The automated design of biological models comprising the optimization of the model structure and its stochastic kinetic...
