Abstract
Over the last two decades, the introduction of new methods such as
pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and capillary array electrophoresis
has made it possible to map and sequence entire genomes, including
our own. The development-of these experimental methods has been helped
by the progress of theoretical and computational sciences, and the
interactions between these three modi operandi of modern science
are still pushing the limits of our technologies. We now see a clear
trend towards proteomics and microfluidic (even nanofluidic!) devices.
In this review, we take a look at the progress of the field over
the last 3 years using the glasses of the theoretical scientist and
focusing mostly on new ideas and concepts. About a dozen different
subfields are discussed and reviewed. We conclude by giving a commented
list of some of the best review articles published over the last
2-3 years.
