Abstract:
All biological organisms are unique. Most of the variation in the population is genetic. However, organisms and cells that share a common genetic background still show significant variation. In this talk I discuss recent experimental evidence for stochastic effects in gene expression that contributes to variation in cell populations. I discuss two sources of the noise, intrinsic and extrinsic and I describe how one can model each type of stochasticity.
