title = "Insights into biological complexity from simple foundations",
abstract = "We discuss an overtly {"}simple approach{"} to complex biological systems borrowing selectively from theoretical physics. The approach is framed by three maxims, and we show examples of its success in two different applications: investigating cellular robustness at the level of gene regulatory networks and quantifying rare events of DNA replication errors.",
