“ knowing the structure doesn't necessarily help you understand the biology ”
I think most everyone recognizes this, but also believes it is probably necessary to know the structure to understand the biology in the future. Ie a necessary yet insufficient advancement that is Nobel worthy.
- DrScientist 2y ago> but also believes it is probably necessary to know the structure to understand the biology in the future I don't agree. Biology is really about systems - complex networks of biological interactions. The physically structure of it's components aren't required to understand those interactions at the system level if you can simply measure the interaction directly ( rather than trying to predict it poorly from a structure ).
