Dr. Kitano has created a massive project called "Payao" which uses networks to allow a large number of researchers to collaborate and share information about biological networks and systems. In his talk, he will describe the increasingly complex nature of research in his field and how it would be impossible without sharing between researchers using open source, open networks and open knowledge. In addition, he will describe how biological networks are in many ways similar to the Internet and other networks in which commons-based peer production occurs.
