Biology in the past two decades has shifted away from qualitative observation towards quantitative data, and away from reductionism towards viewing the phenomena under study as systems. Developments in fluorescent reporters, experimental instrumentation, and computational power have been integral to this change. A key feature of this transformation has been a substantial increase in the use of mathematical models to explore and verify our understanding of complicated biological mechanisms. This thesis looks at three different aspects of the systems modelling approach: data acquisition, model creation and evaluation, and measurement of parameter values. The system under study for the first two parts is the GAL pathway of the yeast Saccharomy...
