>>12135945If you actually already have a strong background in something like mathematical biology or theoretical computer science, then yes it might be interesting to look into, but it's not a super serious field that you would necessarily study on it's own. I mean people do write papers and publish book on the subject, but a lot of those people already do more "serious" research in areas like combinatorial design, dynamical systems, and biological modeling.
